註釋

The Grand Canyon was set aside in 1919 as "a public park for the benefit and enjoyment of the people." It spans 1.2 million acres and contains 5 of the 7 life zones, including 3 of the 4 desert habitats in N. Amer. The park is simultaneously a living science lab., an ecological refuge, the sacred ancestral homeland of native Americans, and a pilgrimage site for 5 mil. international and national visitors each year. This general mgmt. plan for the Park demonstrates sustainable development by preserving resources while simultaneously accommodating increasing visitation.
