So many pages of geological history lie wide open at the Grand Canyon; it's hard to know where to begin reading. And it's even harder when it comes to the fine print. Flagstaff writer Scott Thybony brings us his latest commentary from deep within the Grand Canyon.

Scott Thybony has traveled throughout North America on assignments for major magazines, including Smithsonian, Outside, and Men’s Journal. An article for National Geographic magazine was translated into a dozen languages, and his book, Canyon Country, sold hundreds of thousands of copies. He once herded sheep for a Navajo family, having a hogan to call home and all the frybread he could eat. His commentaries are heard regularly on Arizona Public Radio.
