This is a favored tour that is offered by many companies with helicopters for rent.The Grand Canyon is one of America's most famous national monuments. The Grand Canyon is the world's second largest canyon second behind the Tsangpo Canyon in Tibet. The canyon is considered to be one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World.
It is nearly three hundred miles long and over eighteen miles wide at its widest point in the Dragon Corridor. Dragon Corridor is also the deepest point in the canyon at a mile deep. The Dragon Corridor is named after a ridge that looks like a sleeping dragon reclining on the horizon.
You will view several formations called towers that are named after ancient Egyptian gods including the Tower of Ra. It is said that in 1909 a group of explorers found a series of caves the appeared to be man-made and that they contained artifacts from early Egyptian travelers. There were reportedly hieroglyphs as well as weapons and armor worn by these travelers. These stories tend to feed the theory of ancient alien space travel. The caves have not been found rediscovered in later days.
Other sights that you will see include the glass bottomed Sky Walk Bridge that sticks out over the canyon for tourists to walk on. The effect is said to that of walking on air and looking thousands of feet below you. It was built by the Hualapai Indian Tribe. This structure is the highest man-made structure ever built.
The canyon itself has been carved over a six million year space of time. The layers of colors in the rock signify different eras in the history of life on the planet. Multitudes of fossils from plants and animals from each era have been found by excavators. Scientists have been able to track life forms from each era and each prehistoric period.
Most tours will fly you past Lake Meade and the Hoover Dam. Lake Meade is a man-made lake created by the construction of the Hoover Dam. The original name for this dam was the Boulder Dam. Building started in July of 1930 in Boulder Canyon and when the construction was dedicated in September of 1930 by President Hoover's representative he announced that it would be known as the Hoover Dam. The dam employed twenty one thousand men in total and took over five years to complete.
From your seat you will view will be able to view the sand stone formations and multi-colored floor and walls of the gorge that are breath taking to see. There are also Native American villages to be seen that date back for centuries. There have been Native American Indians living in and around the canyon since 500 AD. The walls of caves show record of many different Native American cultures.
When choosing which of the many helicopters you will hire for your tour try to be certain that they will take you to the sights that are important to you. You can select from companies that operate out of Las Vegas or from the Grand Canyon itself. The main objective should be that they meet the needs of you and your companions.
