Grand Canyon Facts!

1. The Grand Canyon exists.
2. The top of the Grand Canyon is higher than the bottom of the Grand Canyon.
3. The Colorado River runs through the bottom of the Grand Canyon.
4. The top of the Grand Canyon is higher than where the Colorado River enters the canyon.
5. Rivers do not run up hill.

The Colorado River enters the Grand Canyon at an elevation of 2,800 feet above sea level. 277 miles later, it exits the Grand Canyon at 1,800 feet above sea level. The top of the Grand Canyon is over 7,000 feet above sea level. A river flowing at 2,800 feet above sea level cannot gradually form a canyon whose top is over a mile higher than itself!

To the North of the Grand Canyon, we see evidence of two (2) huge lakes that formed as a result of God's flood in the time of Noah. These lakes, Grand Lake and Hopi Lake, would have been held in place by the Kiabab Plateau. The Kiabab Plateau was located where the Grand Canyon is today. Once the Grand Lake and Hopi Lake were high enough to breach the Kiabab, the Grand Canyon would have been carved out very rapidly.
