Reposted from @guinnessworldrecords (@get_regrann) - The 446-km-long (277 miles) Grand Canyon in Arizona, USA, is one of North America's most iconic geographical features and is the world's largest land gorge. It was carved out over millions of years by the Colorado River, which still flows through its base. The chasm plunges to depths of 1.6km (1 mile), and the north and south rims span between 0.5 and 29km (0.3 - 18 miles) apart. You can find more amazing records like this in #GWR2020, out now. 📷: Shutterstock ________________________________________________________________ #guinnessworldrecords #grandcanyon #arizona #coloradoriver - #regrann https://www.instagram.com/p/B6bSZ46lQRK/?igshid=1317lba3zpd2r
