GRAND CANYON SOUTH RIM
The Grand Canyon story begins about 2 billion years ago when igneous and metamorphic rocks were formed. Uplift of the Colorado Plateau was a key step in the eventual formation of Grand Canyon. The action of plate tectonics lifted the rocks high and flat, creating a plateau through which the Colorado River could cut down.
