How Was the Grand Canyon Formed? A Catastrophic Lake Spillover Model
If you read most park signs, you'll find the formation of the Grand Canyon is often treated as a simple question of slow erosion and time. A river cut downward over 5.5 to 6 million years and produced the canyon we see today. At first glance that might seem reasonable. But the more closely the landscape is examined, the more that simple explanation begins to fall short. And interestingly, that explanation is losing favor among many geologists today.You see, the canyon is not an isolated feature. It sits
An Evening with Geologist Dr. Steve Austin
Having Steve here this last time, in the middle of that ongoing work, brought a unique perspective. Not because he handed us answers, but because he has spent decades asking the same kinds of questions in other places.We had one of those evenings you wish you could bottle up and revisit later again and again. Out here in northern Arizona, where the land itself invites questions, our team recently had the chance to gather with geologist Dr. Steve Austin and others who were in town working on a research
Speaking: Missouri Association for Creation
Nate Loper speaking at Missouri Association for Creation Grand Canyon: A Lot of Water in a Little Time How was the Grand Canyon formed—by a slow process of erosion over millions of years by the Colorado River, or in a short time through a massive flooding event? Discover why many leading creation geologists support the model of the Grand Canyon being formed rapidly by a post-Flood lake spillover and a breached dam through the Kaibab Plateau. Join us as we explore the latest research Canyon Ministries is involved in,
The Rest Of The Story
Over the past 24 years of exploring and sharing the Grand Canyon, we have gotten to know it pretty well. Adventure awaits around every corner, and we love seeing the faces of our guests light up as we take them into its many hidden treasures. Of course, marveling over the beauty of this place is only part of our objective. We want to see everyone marvel over our Creator as we examine the powerful evidence of a global Flood as described in the Bible. What we see in
