6/10

Whilst this is bit too long, it's still quite an interesting documentary showing the massive expanse that is the Grand Canyon. From the air, it appears unending with the Colorado river carving it's way through the stone carrying the water that provides for an astonishing array of creatures and plant life. I can only guess at the energy required by the sidewinder as it struggles to slither it's way up the sand dune…
