		Each year, as spring breaks out all over, the call of the canyon beckons civic-minded students to spend a day volunteering their time to help manage and preserve the wild space on campus enjoyed by all.
		The final large-scale canyon construction occurred in 1957, with the excavation of the north bank for the construction of the cross-canyon dorms.

		And then, like a gentle but stern master the Canyon said, "Look deep into my bowels, into the canyons within the canyons and see my beauty." After a long silence it said, "Go now, look into yourself, see your beauty and become conscious of your consciousness.

		Every deep-cut canyon, showing the skeleton ribs, the caverns and caves, its avalanche-carved slides, its long, fan-shaped, spreading taluses, carried conviction to the spectator that it was but a frail bit of rock, that its life was little and brief, that upon it had been laid the merciless curse of nature.
		Sight of the deep red-walled and green-floored canyon was a shock to her.
		One instant the canyon tilted on end for Carley and she was riding into the blue sky.

		The Canyon Wren is a year round resident of the Grand Canyon, making its home among the cliffs and side canyons, predominantly in the lower reaches and the inner canyon.
		The call or cry (I wouldn't exactly call it a song) of the Canyon Wren is a strong series of whistles that continuously descends in pitch from the start to the end of the call.
		When you hear one give its call in a narrow, enclosed area and it echos off of the high cliffs that are all around you it is much more unforgettable.
