The Beauty of the Canyon

I stumbled upon this movie after reading Kevin Fedarko's account of this trip (A Walk in the Park) and purchasing Peter McBride's epic book of photographs from the same trip (The Grand Canyon: Between River and Rim). It really complements those books by showing the absolute beauty of the Canyon while pointing out the issues involving its potential exploitation. And Kevin and Peter's journey (and the lessons they learned during it) makes it more than just a nice nature film.Unlike other reviewers, I feel it was important to see the Navajo Council discussion of the proposed tramway construction at the confluence of the Colorado and Little Colorado Rivers - a very bad idea that so far has been voted down by the Navajo Nation. The footage of the intrusive helicopter flights also makes a valid point about the need to balance the financial interests of the Native American tribes with the quality of the Canyon experience. Having visited the North Rim last year (and planning to return in 2026), I'd say this film is an excellent argument for a big NO to future development, like that tramway.Personally, I felt the film could have been longer, but then I'm a big time fan and supporter of OUR National Parks, especially the Grand Canyon. Highly recommended.

More like a video selfie than something informative.

Too much about the hikers' personal lives and views. Nothing about the formation and geology of the Grand Canyon. The whole show is about them and is super boring.
