I visited the Black Canyon of the Gunnison twice in the late 1970s, in 1977 (North Rim) during the Summer Field Camp field trip and then again during my 1979 Summer Job (South Rim). As there was good weather during both summertime visits, the views were spectacular.
One of the striking aspects of the Canyon is its narrowness in comparison to the Grand Canyon. Its narrowness suggests erosion associated with rapid uplift.
