I am a part of all that I have met;
Yet all experience is an arch wherethrough
Gleams that untraveled world, whose margin fades
For ever and ever as I move....
- Alfred Lord Tennyson - Ulysses (1834)
Marble Canyon marks the western boundary of the Navajo Nation and the beginning of the Grand Canyon. It is the section of the Colorado River canyon in northern Arizona from Glen Canyon Dam to the confluence with the Little Colorado River. It is also the location of the first bridge crossing of the Colorado River completed in 1929 - the Navajo Bridge now open only to pedestrian traffic and designated as an Historic Civil Engineering Landmark.(on the left)
The new highway bridge (on the right) was designed and constructed in the style of the original and was completed in 1995. (ref. Wiki)
