But not quite as old as this guy:

Globull Warming is responsible. The many many ice ages that were in effect over millions of years and the subsequent melting of the great ice sheets, over and over again probably supplied copious amounts of runoff water in very short periods of time that carved the canyons in separate eras......

Gosh Darn!
And here, I thought the issue was settled.
Isn't "science" wonderful? Seems to be as variable as the climate for the last 15-50 million years.
Just saying.

Deep down somewhere in the bowels of the liberal academic ‘climate coven’ this finding is going to be the impetus to renew the cat call of urgency that Climate Change will kill us if we don’t act now, sooner in fact, because the Grand Canyon is 50 million years older than we thought....mark my words....

Blasphemous! Try Powers blended whiskey, neat. Goes well with a Shiner Black Lager.

Interesting, but what does it matter?
To humans today, what difference does it make?
Recorded history that we know is just a tick in time.

The new research does not call into question, however, that the Colorado River did, on its present course, start spilling sediment into Lake Mead six million years ago. Who knew that Lake Mead was six million years old?
