River To Rim, 3rd Edition

River to Rim tells the stories of rapids, temples, and points in the Grand Canyon: who named what and when, quotations from explorers, names given by tourists and river runners, and the events that gave rise to the place names. Whether you are viewing the scenery from the rim, running the river, or hiking the trails, here are the stories of over 600 place names along 300 miles of the Colorado River in Grand Canyon on a mile-by-mile sequence. The names of the Grand Canyon rock layers are given that tell the deep time stories of the canyon’s layers. Place names in this Third Edition of 300 pages are indexed and tied to a bibliography of over 280 entries.
