Where Paria Creek meets the Colorado River, the view runs west into the deepening walls of Marble Canyon, the upper stretch of the Grand Canyon system. The river has cut through layers of red and cream sandstone and limestone over millions of years, and the walls rise in tiers that show the geologic record in plain sight. Lees Ferry, nearby, was a crossing for travelers and freight for decades before bridges made it obsolete, so the scene also belongs to the long history of river travel in the region.
