River that flows through the Grand Canyon (8)

I believe the answer is:

colorado

(Other definitions for colorado that I've seen before include "American state, capital Denver" , "Denver's state" , "US state has a strangely cool road" , "Boulder's state" , "River running through the Grand Canyon in Arizona" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
