At Horseshoe Bend, the desert rock of Arizona is interrupted by a glorious sweep of the Colorado River. Cutting deep into the surrounding plateau, its waters stand as a symbol of age-old tenacity and patience. It has taken countless centuries to wear away this rock, but victory was sure. Great things are achieved through persistence. This same river has carved out the incomparable Grand Canyon. Who would think the steady flow of water, with its miniature chiselings year after year, could build such monuments on the earth? Here, it has transformed the desert, bringing life and hope to an otherwise desolate land.
