Grand Canyon Waterfall
Photo: A waterfall in the Grand Canyon
WALLPAPER
A waterfall cascades down the sheer face of the Grand Canyon in Arizona. In addition to the mighty Colorado River running through the canyon, water—a vital resource in the arid Southwest—exists in the form of springs, streams, and seeps.
