The Grand Staircase Companion

The Grand Staircase Companion is a beautifully designed, map‑rich digital field guide to one of the largest, least understood geologic regions in the American Southwest. Stretching from the North Rim of the Grand Canyon to the edge of Bryce Canyon, the Grand Staircase is a vast, multicolored archive of Earth’s history and this guide helps you finally see how its cliffs, benches, and canyons fit together.

This guide breaks the Staircase’s sweeping geologic story into short, intuitive “witnesses,” each with:

• A location map showing where that chapter appears in the landscape
• A concise, engaging explanation of what happened
• Photos helping you learn to see the story behind the scenery
• Hyperlinks for quick navigation

You’ll also get:

• A regional timeline
• A location index linking real places to geologic moments
• A name index with meanings for local names

Whether you’re planning a trip, standing at an overlook, or exploring from home, this guide helps you see the canyon’s story not just its scenery.

Perfect for: travelers, hikers, road‑trippers, teachers, families, and anyone who wants a clear, modern introduction to Grand Canyon geology.
