For writer Ruth Kirk, one of the best ways to truly experience the Grand Canyon is to float down the Colorado River and view the magnificent canyon from within. In Ken Burns's newest film, THE NATIONAL PARKS: AMERICA'S BEST IDEA, premiering Sunday-Friday, September 27-October 2, 2009, she describes the impact the Grand Canyon has had on her and why she is always struck by its beauty.
