Last week the Grand Canyon celebrated its 100th anniversary as a national park. As one of the most visited parks in the entire U.S. system, it sees millions of visitors on an annual basis. But not everyone knows its history, which is where this fantastic video comes in. It not only includes plenty of stunning shots of the canyon itself, it also provides us a little insight into how it became one of the most iconic destinations in the entire U.S. But its history dates back far further than that, as you’ll see in the clip. Fascinating stuff for sure.
