The lowest bedrock altitude obtained along the course of the Teays Valley across Wabash County was 410 feet (120 m) above sea level in the vicinity of La Fontaine. The average gradient of the Mahomet Valley above Beardstown, Illinois, is about 7 inches per mile (11.1 cm per kilometer). [16]
In the middle of the area, the bedrock is from the Mercia Mudstone Group formed between 252.2 and 201.3 million years ago during the Triassic period. North of the parish by the Sutton Brook, there are superficial glaciofluvial terrace deposits, of the Mid Pleistocene transition composed of sand and gravel, these being formed between 860 and 116 ...
The bedrock of Lubbock Lake is part of the Blanco Formation, which is a subset of Pleistocene deposits. Here, it is composed mostly of a large deposit of lake sediments about two million years old. Above the Blanco Formation is the Blackwater Draw Formation, a sheet of wind-deposited sediment that covers most of the region. This deposit slowly ...
Plunge: Water descends vertically, losing contact with the bedrock surface. [1] Horsetail: Descending water maintains some contact with bedrock. [1] Cataract: A large, powerful waterfall. [1] Multi-step: A series of waterfalls one after another of roughly the same size each with its own sunken plunge pool. [1]
At the top of the plateau, the surface area can be as much as 300 feet (91 m) above sea level. The width of this landform at its northern and southern ends is a little more than 0.5 miles (0.80 km). However, its midsection is narrowed by the eastern corner of Moulin Huet Bay which is known as Petit Port; here, the promontory's width is only ...
According to maps of Estonian geology, released by the Estonian Land Board, in the Aegviidu area, the basement is located approximately 200 meters below the sea level and the upper layer consists primarily of biotite gneiss, [36] while the bedrock layer is approximately 35-65 meters above the sea level, of which the upper layer consists ...
At the top it levels off and reaches the trail junction. On the Rider Hollow side, the trailhead at the end of Rider Hollow Road is at a higher elevation, 2,000 feet (610 m). Its first mile remains relatively level as it follows the brook on that side closely, passing the lean-to site on that side and a developed spring .
