These are sand dunes located in Colorado. These sand dunes where formed through wind erosion and dissolution from the mountains. The wind carried the eroded off sediments into sand piles that eventually amounted up into dunes.]]> 2017-11-03 18:21:08 UTC https://padlet.com/2161485/1tjl5f67zvl8/wish/203431275 2161485 https://padlet.com/2161485/1tjl5f67zvl8/wish/203435868

This is a Hoodoo in Bryce's national park in Utah. This Hoodoo was formed through frost wedging, and rain. The frost wedging would happen through rain freezing in the noticeable cracks, expanding and then melting. Also rain over time eventually formed the shape of these Hoodoo's. ]]> 2017-11-03 18:31:00 UTC https://padlet.com/2161485/1tjl5f67zvl8/wish/203435868 2161485 https://padlet.com/2161485/1tjl5f67zvl8/wish/203438344

This is a Pinnacle located in Colorado. This Pinnacle was formed as it was extruded and deposited atop the granitic basement. The magma that was the source of all the volcanic was rhyolitic in origin. The formation consists of rocks such as banded and massive rhyolite, some andesites and dacites and various pyroclastic units.

This is an arch in Arches national park in Utah. This is formed mainly through wind erosion's through this original rock and over time put the weakest rock that was located in the middle and swept away with the wind. ]]> 2017-11-03 18:40:37 UTC https://padlet.com/2161485/1tjl5f67zvl8/wish/203440130 2161485 https://padlet.com/2161485/1tjl5f67zvl8/wish/203442104

A Talus Slope is formed through Exfoliation and Abrasion where other rocks erode off of other rocks and pile on a hill. These are what causes avalanches usually because of the rocks stacked up everywhere. ]]> 2017-11-03 18:45:36 UTC https://padlet.com/2161485/1tjl5f67zvl8/wish/203442104 2161485 https://padlet.com/2161485/1tjl5f67zvl8/wish/203443419

V-Shaped Valleys are usually formed with water erosion through the middle of your environmental area. (Usually rock formations) The water cuts through the area taking the sediment and eventually forms a valley based on the waters angle. ]]> 2017-11-03 18:48:51 UTC https://padlet.com/2161485/1tjl5f67zvl8/wish/203443419 2161485 https://padlet.com/2161485/1tjl5f67zvl8/wish/203444710

This is a meandering stream. These are formed when water cuts through an environment or valley and deposits sediments on the edge of the valley and then goes the other way because of simple pathing laws. ]]> 2017-11-03 18:52:14 UTC https://padlet.com/2161485/1tjl5f67zvl8/wish/203444710 2161485 https://padlet.com/2161485/1tjl5f67zvl8/wish/203446463

An oxbow lake is a U shaped body of water that forms when a wide meander from the main stem of a river is cut off, creating a free-standing body of water.

Sinkholes are formed when water erosion underground carries sediment too different areas, and when there is nothing beneath the higher surface of the ground it sinks, making a sinkhole. ]]> 2017-11-06 16:53:16 UTC https://padlet.com/2161485/1tjl5f67zvl8/wish/203988073 2161485 https://padlet.com/2161485/1tjl5f67zvl8/wish/203989392

Cave feautures are formed through water erosion carrying sediments and dripping eventually to form stalemates and stalagmites. ]]> 2017-11-06 16:55:28 UTC https://padlet.com/2161485/1tjl5f67zvl8/wish/203989392 2161485 https://padlet.com/2161485/1tjl5f67zvl8/wish/203991794

Glacial features are formed with glacial deposition and water erosion taking different types of ice which scratch the mountain creating these features. ]]> 2017-11-06 16:59:45 UTC https://padlet.com/2161485/1tjl5f67zvl8/wish/203991794 2161485 https://padlet.com/2161485/1tjl5f67zvl8/wish/203992665

These are usually natural disasters that are triggered by the environment and environment situation. ]]> 2017-11-06 17:01:22 UTC https://padlet.com/2161485/1tjl5f67zvl8/wish/203992665
