rdfs:comment	Die Grand Staircase (Große Treppe) ist eine Schichtstufenlandschaft, die sich in den Sedimentgesteinen des Colorado Plateaus im Westen der Vereinigten Staaten herausgebildet hat. Sie erstreckt sich in den Bundesstaaten Utah und Arizona vom Bryce Canyon National Park nach Süden über den Zion National Park bis zum Grand Canyon. (de) The Grand Staircase is an immense sequence of sedimentary rock layers that stretch south from Bryce Canyon National Park and Grand Staircase–Escalante National Monument, through Zion National Park, and into Grand Canyon National Park. (en) La Gran Escalinata (en inglés Grand Staircase) es una inmensa secuencia de capas de rocas sedimentarias que se distribuyen desde el Parque Nacional del Cañón Bryce, a través del Parque Nacional Zion hasta el Gran Cañón. En 1870, el geólogo llegó a la conclusión de que la región era una especie de ascensor que ascendía desde el fondo del gran cañón. Dutton dividió estas capas en cinco * Acantilados Rosados, * , * , * , y * . Actualmente, los científicos han vuelto a dividir las capas según las formaciones individuales de rocas. (es) Le Grand Staircase (littéralement « Grande cage d'escalier ») est le nom donné à un gigantesque empilement de couches géologiques composé de roches sédimentaires et visible au Sud-Ouest des États-Unis et plus particulièrement dans les parcs nationaux de Bryce Canyon, de Zion et du Grand Canyon, en Utah et Arizona. Les roches les plus anciennes ont plus de 2 milliards d'années tandis que les plus jeunes ont environ 40 millions d’années. (fr) La Grand Staircase, in italiano Grande scalinata, è un'enorme sequenza di strati sedimentari disposti a gradoni che risalgono come una scalinata dal Grand Canyon al Bryce Canyon attraversando il parco nazionale di Zion, nel SO degli Stati Uniti. La descrizione di questa regione come un'unica grande formazione geologica disposta a gradoni si deve al geologo Clarence Dutton, il quale individuò le cinque scarpate che costituiscono i gradoni della Grand Staircase. Ogni scarpata è denominata sulla base del colore delle rocce che la costituiscono. In ordine ascendente esse sono: (it) De Grand Staircase is een geologische formatie bestaande uit een reeks sedimentair gesteenten in onder andere Bryce Canyon, Zion Canyon en de Grand Canyon. Het hoogstgelegen deel ervan is het Aquarius Plateau. In 1870 maakte de geoloog Clarence Dutton een eerste model van deze regio als een gigantische trap oplopend uit de bodem van de Grand Canyon in noordelijke richting met de klifrand van elke laag van de stappen. Dutton verdeelde deze in vijf stappen van de jongste (bovenste) gesteenten: * Pink Cliffs * Grey Cliffs * White Cliffs * Vermilion Cliffs * Chocolade Cliffs (nl)
