Huh? Water finds “its way up” in mysterious objects called “clouds”. And the process you don't seem to be considering is the uplift of land due to tectonic forces and isostatic rebound; for practical purposes the river stays at the same relative height and gradient while the land raises on either side.

Nice try.
But all you're doing is repeating the (current) conventional wisdom about how the Grand Canyon was formed.
You completely ignored for reasons not clear the idea which I was responding to which was that glaciers had some role in the creation/formation of the Grand Canyon. Glaciers are rivers of ice. Glaciers do not fall from the sky, nor does the runoff from glaciers fall from the sky.
But thanks for playing.
