I agree that the park is beautiful, and perhaps development should consider better locations. However the Grand Canyon national park is huge. Something like 2000 square miles. Anyone claiming that there should be no development, or that this will 'ruin the grand canyon' is incorrect.

2000 square miles is a circle with a radius of about, what, 25 miles? Have you ever been to the American southwest?
