Amazing Geological Formations


Grand Canyon 024, originally uploaded by srinidhilv.

I had earlier blogged about Grand Canyon and how keen I was to visit this natural wonder sited in Arizona, US. When I visited the Grand Canyon 18 months ago I discovered that this place has become so developed and commercialized that there is nothing left to explore. Thousands of hikers, climbers, river runners and adventurers have been there and done that.
Apart from that, numerous young and old folk have carelessly challenged the canyon and paid the ultimate price. All along the Canyon there were signs which warned people from going too much to the edge as the earth underneath would give way and they would plummet thousands of feet into the depths of the canyon.
The picture above depicts one such place which is very dangerous and has claimed many a careless individuals life.
