*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
In the state of Arizona a gorge of amazing proportions was carved out over a two billion year time span. It is 277 miles, 446 km, long and in some places up to 18 miles, 29 km, wide. The Colorado River carved this one mile deep canyon, which is one of Seven Natural Wonders of the World. Grand Canyon helicopters take tourists high above this wonderful place.

Native Americans have made the surrounding area their home for thousands of years. The tourists can see the pueblo dwellings carved into the rock walls where the ancient Navaho tribes made their homes. A flight over the desert lands, where the tribal members of today make their homes, takes you to the rim bordering the Grand Wonder itself.

This breathtaking arial view is a photo opportunity for the tourists as they look down from one of the helicopters that take them over the vista of the desert, Lake Meade and the magnificent coulee itself. It is a breathtaking experience never to be forgotten for the rest of their lives. It includes seeing the Hoover Dam, a gigantic concrete structure.

The beauty of the rock walls with their layer upon layer of evidence of earlier times, before the mighty Colorado River carved out the mile depth that exists today, is on both sides of the helicopter as it descends to the floor below.

You may see a group of white water rafters enjoying the sights from a different vantage point. You may see a group of tourists descending on burros. You might spot a group riding horses along the rim, keeping a safe distance as they ride.

Your helicopter pilot serves as a tour guide as he points out the famous landmarks on, in and surrounding this natural wonder. There is an historic trading post, still busily selling handmade souvenirs made by the Native Americans who still make the area their home. There are picnic areas for those who packed a lunch and wish to eat and have a view of the coulee at the same time.

Viewing the rim you will see the Navajo Reservation and the desert spreading back to Flagstaff Arizona and beyond. Fly over spectacular sandstone megaliths, the red rock monuments the area is famous for. See the horseshoe shaped, glass-bottom bridge, where tourists walk out over the gorge itself. This is the worlds highest structure made by man. It is 2,300 feet, 700 meters, above the gorge below.

See the people walking on it and peering through the glass below their feet. Walking on it out over the canyon below is an exciting adventure. But, when it comes to the best sightseeing opportunities and the excitement, nothing can surpass an adventurous helicopter ride over it all.

Grand Canyon helicopters take groups over the dizzying depth one mile down to the Colorado River. You will see the Central Canyon and the Dragon Corridor. The soft, ever fluctuating muted shades of color and light are spread out below. There is both bright sunlight and muted shadows, creating a contrast as stark as the walls of rock displaying layers representative of mysteries of billions of years of time.
