Pin a place, and put observations about it as you discover more. (1) describe what a unique geologic feature is that you would see here (2) make an inference about why it looks that way - what agent of erosion has acted on it (wind, water, glaciers, gravity)?

There is very brittle layers of grey rock on the far edge of the creek (eastern side).  The creekwater is about 2 feet deep, flowing at a velocity of ______ (11/6).  The creekbed is made of the grey rock on the riverbank, and has loose rounded sediments in it, about large pebble to small cobble sized. ]]> 2020-10-14 15:16:40 UTC https://padlet.com/kgrabowski6/wwhbxmosanyk14fe/wish/829007001 https://padlet.com/kgrabowski6/wwhbxmosanyk14fe/wish/862727199 why is Outer Banks surrounded by water, with only a little bit of land to drive on over the water - the obx is a string of barrier islands and when the water rises it leaves little amount of land ]]> 2020-10-26 17:13:49 UTC https://padlet.com/kgrabowski6/wwhbxmosanyk14fe/wish/862727199 https://padlet.com/kgrabowski6/wwhbxmosanyk14fe/wish/880454239 Why is it only sand and so dangerously hot that not many life is found here. ]]> 2020-11-01 20:33:38 UTC https://padlet.com/kgrabowski6/wwhbxmosanyk14fe/wish/880454239 https://padlet.com/kgrabowski6/wwhbxmosanyk14fe/wish/896336344 It's a big waterfall(s).

The rocks over the years have slowly eroded, forming this miniature waterfall at the Elma Park Creek. On some points, water doesn't flow down the wall of rocks because it wasn't hit with water as much compared to other parts, causing it to not erode and instead, become a dry spot. The rocks at the bottom of the mini waterfall are uneven at points, and slippery as well.    How did the rocks at the bottom of the waterfall get there?  Was it due to the running water, gravity? Would also love to see a picture!

  Rushford Lake was formed by a dam on Caneadea Creek in 1927. Resulting in the loss of the communities of East Rushford and Kellogville by flooding. (The lake still has some parts of houses, trains, etc. in it. Sometimes you can see train cars when the lake gets emptied). When it flooded, the town was already down a hill or a "dip" so the water flowed in and only stayed in that area. But as it rained, the lake filled up and eroded the sides making it bigger and smoother. When you are on your boat or jet-ski at the lake, you can driver over to the dam and you can see the water flowing down into a river. Another thing you can see is a railroad track on the side of a hill. That is because the train could transport through the town. - Maddie Berger ]]> 2020-11-10 13:52:25 UTC https://padlet.com/kgrabowski6/wwhbxmosanyk14fe/wish/908440773 https://padlet.com/kgrabowski6/wwhbxmosanyk14fe/wish/908450842 desert mountains with dried up creek beds that carved paths into the land scape.
