Grand canyon by many names
The Hopi call it the Ongtupqa, the Yavapai call it Wi:ka'i:la, the Navajo call it Tsekooh Hatsoh, and the Spanish called it the Gran Cañon. Teddy Roosevelt protected it as the Grand Canyon Game Preserve in 1906 before it achieved National Park status in 1919. Grand Canyon National Park. Scanned from a transparency. 20041011 © Lawrence I.
