Marble Canyon, Arizona, USA

You may think that this plunging canyon is the Grand Canyon, but today we’re exploring a lesser-known canyon about 115 kilometres away. Named for its resemblance to marble, the natural sandstone and limestone topography of Marble Canyon contains ethereal hues of pink, grey, purple, white and even gold. Located on the Colorado River, Marble Canyon may not be as well known as the Grand Canyon, but it is still a popular destination among adventure seekers and nature lovers.
