The Conodoguinet Creek is approximately 90 miles long and flows into the Susquehanna River. It is located in south-central Pennsylvania and consists of many bends and turns, thus establishing the name Conodoguinet, which is Native American for “a long way with many bends”.

There are 24 named waterfalls in Ricketts Glen State Park in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania along Kitchen Creek as it flows in three steep, narrow valleys, or glens. They range in height from 9 feet (2.7 m) to the 94-foot (29 m) Ganoga Falls. Ricketts Glen State Park is named for R. Bruce Ricketts, a colonel in the American Civil War who owned over 80,000 acres (32,000 ha) in the area in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, but spared the old growth forests in the glens from clearcutting. The park, which opened in 1944, is administered by the Bureau of State Parks of the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR). Nearly all of the waterfalls are visible from the Falls Trail, which Ricketts had built from 1889 to

In this photo is where the Squamish River ends and the Howe Sound begins. The Squamish River is glacially fed further up the valley. The river has cut and meandered its way through the valley with tributaries (Cheakamus River and Mamquam River) funnelling into the Squamish river. These river systems have carried sediment down to the Howe Sound and this sediment is what the town of Squamish is built on.

This report will discuss Katherine Gorge. The Katherine gorge is a narrow valley in between hills/valleys, with some steep rock walls and streams running through it into a pool. In this report, it will include the geographic location, landscape, climate, formation, culture views, major threats as well as a conclusion.

It is the largest waterfall in West Virginia. It is 1500 feet wide and drops 10 to 25 feet. You can be in a junior range program. Some people will find this the first stop on their journey in West Virginia. What the good thing is you don’t even have to pay. You and your family can have fun. They are open 7 days a week and 24 hours a day.

Yosemite Falls is a massive waterfall system, the 5th largest in the world, and the tallest waterfall in North America. It is comprised of 3 smaller falls, which are called the Upper Fall, the Middle Cascades, and the Lower Fall. Together, they are 2,425 feet tall which is nearly equivalent to two Empire State Buildings stacked on top of one another. It is estimated that about 2,400 gallons per second flow over the falls during the Spring, which would fill a 300 cubic foot swimming pool in approximately one second. The reason the The reason the waterfall is so high above the valley floor is because the glacier that eroded the valley floor down to where it lays today eroded the surrounding rock much more rapidly than the other rivers and glaciers

Nearly 13,000 years ago, glaciers moved across the earth. In the Pacific Northwest they created many rivers, including the Columbia. The rock that the Grand Coulee Dam was built on was carved out by those glaciers creating a sturdy base of the dam. It is located in the rain-shadow of the Cascade Mountain Range in a shrub-steppe grassland, which results in very little rainfall and high temperatures. There have been many Native American tribes, including the Spokane, Sanpoli, Nespelem, Lakes, Colville and many others that have lived along the Columbia River and have relied on it for many of their day-to-day necessities (Columbia Basin Project 2015).

Second of all, the park wasn’t first known as Cloudland Canyon, it was first known as Trenton Gulf or Sitton Gulf. Then in 1938 the gulf was purchased by president Franklin D. Roosevelt during the Great Depression. The operating hours of the Cloudland Canyon are 7am to 10pm, so your family has all day to experience the activities at Cloudland Canyon or to just walk and look at the scenic views it has to offer. Cloudland Canyon is located in Rising Fawn, Georgia. The geographical features the park has are amazing. Case cave which you can take tours in and look at many different rock formations. The beautiful waterfalls of Cloudland Canyon are West Rim Falls and Daniel Creek Falls. Daniel Creek Falls is more in the forest part of the canyon and is great to walk by when hiking. West Rim Falls is towards the outside of forest, but still great to hike by and see the stunning view. Another stunning view is not a place to hike by, but it is the foliage. During the fall all the colors of the leaves make it look more like a painting than

The only types of rocks found in Big Bend National park are Sedimentary (N.P). The specific names for these rocks are: limestones, shale and sandstones, clay, Lava Flow, Conglomerate, Marl, and Cherty Limestone are found in this park (N.P). These rocks were likely abundant throughout the park; when the area was covered by a salty sea during the Cretaceous period (N.P). The way how these rocks formed is by the results of pebbles being cemented together. Another way how the rocks can form is by how the earliest layer of rock was deposited in a relatively deep marine environment. After the next layer above the shale indicates that the rock is deposited in a very shallow way, that's when the ocean water starts

Communities that was adjacent to Buffalo Creek. When operation of the mine commenced in 1945 the practice dumping of slurry or coal mining waste into the hollow also began. Coal companies who operated upstream of the communities dammed Buffalo Creek to facilitate mining operations, which created an earth dam that held back 130 million gallons of water and coal waste. On average, a thousand tons of slurry had to be dumped every day. Although there were many complaints about the safety of the coal company and its regulation of the Buffalo Creek site, nothing was ever done to improve the dam’s conditions. The Buffalo Creek project had three earth dams ranging in

Three mountain ranges make up the first region: Rocky, Olympic, and Cascade mountains. The Rocky Mountains are known as the Columbia mountains and are in the Northeast region. They have scenic valleys and ridges where minerals like gold and silver are found. The Olympic mountains are in the northwestern corner of Washington. These mounts are comprised of the highest peaks in the Coastal Range and are great for camping sites as it is in a wilderness. Some parts of the Olympic mountains have never been explored yet! The Cascade mountains are located east of the Puget Sound Lowlands and include several volcanic peaks, like Mount Rainier and Mount St. Helen. Lush forests and glaciers are just some of the amazing features in the Cascade Mountain ranges. In close, the Rocky,

The Colorado River is formed by small streams created by a huge amount of snowmelt from the Rocky Mountains. The ecology and flow of the river varies highly by region. The river is divided into two different regions, the Upper Basin and the Lower Basin. Beginning in the early 1900s, western states began to

1. Why was the building of the dam first proposed in 1919 and by whom?

The Trout Creek Mountains are a Great Basin range in Oregon and Nevada in the United States. Oriented generally north–south, the mountains consist mostly of fault blocks of basalt, while the southern end has granitic outcrops. Overall, the faulted terrain is dominated by rolling hills cut by canyons. Most of the range is federal land, and there is little human development, apart from cattle ranching. The public land, dominated by big sagebrush and desert grasses, is open to recreation but is rarely visited. Sage grouse and mountain chickadee are two native bird species, and pronghorn and jackrabbit are common mammals. Despite a dry climate, rare Lahontan cutthroat trout persist in a few streams after declining for much of the 20th century.
