The Grandest Canyon
The Grandest Canyon of them All
Kevin Ray Decker
The Grand Canyon is located in the Four Corners Region of Southwestern America. It was widely believed to be made by the Colorado River over millions of years. But with the advent of Google Earth Satellite imagery we are able to see a much larger canyon that exists across five states, all the way from the Flaming Gorge Canyon in Wyoming throughout Utah, Colorado, Mexico and Arizona.
When following the Colorado River’s escarpments all the way to the Gulf of California, it seems to end its mighty course somewhere near the Salton Sea in California. Never really recreating anything like the Grand Canyon along its course to the ocean.

The exploration and colonization of what is now North America and the United States from the last ice age to the present is a fascinating story. It is a story of how North America developed and how the United States became the greatest nation on earth. This is not to imply that all of its history was kind, fair, and gentle for we have not yet come close to perfection, but we have become the most giving nation on earth and the strongest force for world peace whether through exploration, purchase, or treaty.

It’s a story of how an incredible underdog (these 13 divided colonies) came together and won their freedom and liberty from England. We learn how our Founders came together to build the foundation of this new country by determining what kind of people and nation we wanted to be. Lastly, we discuss the Old Northwest Indian War and our continued conflict with the native people who struggled to keep their own culture and liberty.
