The Grand Canyon
General Purpose: To inform.
Specific Purpose: To inform my classmates on the vacation and adventure opportunities
that the Grand Canyon offers.
Central Idea: The Grand Canyon is more than just a hole in the ground, it is 1,900
square miles of land that are, for the most part, unmolested by man (Grand Canyon
National Park). It is one of the World’s Seven Natural Wonders and is a virtual
playground for outdoor enthusiasts (Rosenberg).
Introduction:
Attention Getter: As spring arrives, the days get longer, the weather entices us to spend
more time outside and a strange thing occurs in the mind of a college student. Thoughts
of studies and fretting over preparing for speeches gives way to thoughts of a week free
of textbooks and deciding how to spend our Spring Break. If a week of binge drinking,
hangovers and unmemorable nights doesn’t appeal to you, I would like to offer the
alternative of visiting the Grand Canyon National Park this spring. At its widest point the
Grand Canyon spans eighteen miles, which is equal to the distance from the 91 and 57
interchange all the way to the 91 and 71 interchange. It reaches a depth of one mile which
is equal to the distance from Chapman Avenue down Lemon until you reach

Orangethorpe Avenue (Grand Canyon National Park). This amazing natural attraction is
only 480 miles away and can be reached in about eight hours of driving.
Introduce Topic: This afternoon I would like to share with you a few of the vacation
options that a trip to the Grand Canyon can provide you.
Statement of Credibility: Explored by Major John Wesley Powell for the first time in
1869, established as a National Park by Congress in 1919 and named one of the Seven
Natural Wonders of the World by CNN in 1997, the Grand Canyon is the most
phenomenal feat of erosion in geological history and attracts close to five million visitors
a year (Powel; Grand Canyon National Park; Rosenberg).
Thesis: Since 1901 people have been travelling to the Grand Canyon to view what
President Theodore Roosevelt said is “something that every American should see”
(Grand Canyon Railway).
Preview: The Grand Canyon National Park offers a wide array of vacation and adventure
opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts. Whether you seek a relaxing trip to the South Rim
for some sightseeing, an exploratory hike into the canyon, or the adrenaline pumping
white water rafting of the Colorado River, the Grand Canyon should earn a spot on
everyone’s bucket list of places to visit in their lives.
Body:
Transition: Perhaps the most common activity of a Grand Canyon visit is a simple trip to
the South Rim to take in the majestic views.
I.
Train ride to and sightseeing from the South Rim
a. Upon arriving at the South Rim one is able to enjoy the magnificent views
from multiple viewing stations which are all connected by the easy and

mostly flat Rim Trail or the Hermit Road. The South Rim also offers a
variety of museums and information centers that house exhibits and
provide park information (Grand Canyon National Park).
b. Completed in 1901, the Grand Canyon Railway transported visitors across
the sixty-five miles from Williams, Arizona to the South Rim of the Grand
Canyon, making it possible for the general public to visit a place that only
the most adventurous explorers had been able to see prior. The railway
stopped operating in 1968 due to the popularity of the automobile but was
reopened in 1989 and is now responsible for keeping an estimated 50,000
cars out of the national park each year and continues to be a wonderful and
nostalgic way to travel to the Grand Canyon. Some notable passengers to
have ridden the railway include Theodore Roosevelt, John Muir, William
Howard Taft, Franklin Roosevelt, Dwight D. Eisenhower, and Bill Gates
(Grand Canyon Railway).
Transition: If traveling to the Grad Canyon and merely standing on the edge of such an
impressive geological feature has left you desiring a closer more personal look at the
innards of the canyon, then perhaps its time to lace up your boots and explore below the
rim.
II.
Hiking in the Grand Canyon
a. Michael Lanza, of Backpacker Magazine wrote in June 2011 that his
spring time hike into the Grand Canyon was a way to “discover surprising
solitude and endless vistas on an easy-access multiday trip between rim
and river” (Lanza).
Minutes of Speaking Time 2:00

b. There are three campgrounds inside the canyon and nineteen hiking trails
of varying difficulty depending on how deep into the canyon they take
you.
c. Maybe one of the most challenging hikes would be to hike across the
canyon. The South Kaibab Trail will lead you down into the canyon then
cross the Colorado River on a narrow foot bridge 70 feet above the water
before climbing up the north side of the canyon. It is a 21 mile hike to go
from rim to rim and is an overnight trip for 95% of hikers (Grand Canyon
National Park).
Transition: If the previous methods of exploring the Grand Canyon have only wetted
your appetite for adventure, then a multi-day rafting trip on the Colorado River might be
the trip for you.
III.
Raft trips on the Colorado River
a. Although Travis Heggie found boating incidents to be responsible for 5%
of all National Park fatalities in his study published in the 2008 edition of
Journal Of Travel Medicine, it is a risk people seem willing to take as
some rafting trips can get booked up two years in advance (Heggie; Grand
Canyon National Park). Some trips are so sought after that the park
actually issues permits via a lottery system (Grand Canyon National Park).
b. There are many options to choose from for your rafting trip; whether you
are an experienced boater seeking a personal adventure or you are
interested in a completely catered family outing offered through a
commercial outfitter. Trip lengths can vary from a single day up to a
Minutes of Speaking Time 2:00

twenty-five day expedition reminiscent of Major Powell’s early
explorations of the canyon, minus the threat of being killed by the natives,
that is (Grand Canyon National Park).
Conclusion:
Review: I’ve shared three basic vacation ideas with you today that can be combined or
expanded upon to offer a multitude of ways to enjoy your future visits to the Grand
Canyon. Whether it be a sightseeing trip on a historic train with your family, a hiking trip
with friends or a rafting trip that you will never forget, the Grand Canyon has something
to offer for all outdoor enthusiasts as well as those who just appreciate the beauty of the
natural world.
Concluding Remarks: So, if you haven’t made plans for your spring break yet and a trip
to the Grand Canyon appeals to you, then I’ll see you there this spring.
