The most common knowledge about the Grand Canyon is that although this place is beautiful, it is a difficult environment to walk and to find resources such as water and food. This is proven by Lopez de Cardenass's description.
<h3>How does Lopez de Cardenas describe the Grand Canyon?</h3>
- He claims the location is irregular.
- He claims that the terrain has descents impossible to be conquered by humans.
- He highlights the lack of qualified water to be consumed.
- He highlights the lack of safe food for consumption.
- It shows how extremely cold the place is.
- It shows that the environment is beautiful, but it makes life difficult for humans.
The Grand Canyon is a very beautiful and admired place all over the world. This beauty is what makes the environment known and a great tourist spot for those who wish to observe beautiful landscapes. However, it is common for us to realize that this place is a great challenge for those who want to walk and settle in it, due to its irregular surface, with extremely uneven terrain. In addition, the climate and natural resources of the place are not favorable.
This type of knowledge is confirmed by the report by Lopez de Cardenas, who emphasizes that in addition to the difficult terrain, the lack of potable water in the place and the cold climate are very challenging.

Virginia Driving Hawk Sneve was born on February 21, 1933. She is an American author, with a focus on books about Native Americans for children.
Virginia was raised on the Rosebud Indian Reservation. She graduated from St. Mary's School for Indian Girls in Springfield, South Dakota and received her bachelor's and master's degrees from South Dakota State University where she met her husband. She has published over twenty books on South Dakota history, Native American history, poetry, fiction and non-fiction works for children, as well as one about her female ancestors, "Completing the Circle"
“The Medicine Bag” by Virginia Driving Hawk Sneve tells the story of a kid name Martin. He has a Sioux grandpa who lives on a reservation, and he loves to tell many stories of him. However, many of the stories he tells to his friends are exaggerated to the point that the person his friends think his grandpa is like, is nowhere close to the reality of Martin’s grandpa. This is fine when his grandpa lives on the reservation, but his grandpa decided to come to Martin’s house. Not wanting his friends to see that his grandpa was not as good as he told, Martin pretends his grandpa isn’t at his house and doesn’t treat him with respect. He is embarrassed and obsessed because of his Grandpa. The story shows us the theme that you shouldn’t be embarrassed of you ancestry.
The line from “The Medicine Bag” that best illustrates Martin’s conflict with his Grandpa’s arrival is:
“His get-up wasn’t out of place on the reservation, but it sure was here, and I wanted to sink right through the pavement.”
Martin always lied about his grandpa not being there when his friends came to meet him, and in this time he saw no scaping from the situation, more than "wanting to sink his head through the pavement"
They show that the speaker didn’t appreciate his childhood until time took it away.
This is evident in the first line of the poem where it says And nothing I cared,
Hope it helps
