  • The Genesee River cascades over a drop in the eroded river bed in Letchworth State Park, New York. The area was once submerged under an inland sea, which left deposits that formed sandstone and shale. The Genesee River eroded the river bed, forming small drops like this, as well as the Letchworth Gorge, which is 22 miles (35 km) long and as much as 550 feet (168 meters) deep.

  • Rabbitbrush (Chrysothamnus nauseosus var. consimilis) grows under a fiery sunrise at the edge of Mono Lake in Mono County, California. Mono Lake has no outlet, so salt accumulates and makes the water alkeline. Limestone columns called tufa towers are visible in the lake. Tufa towers form under water. They were exposed when Los Angeles diverted some of the fresh water that feeds the lake, causing the lake level to drop.

  • Golden Larch trees (Pseudolarix amabilis) at the peak of their fall color frame Blue Lake and several peaks near Washington Pass in the North Cascades of Washington state. Golden Larches, while not considered true larches, are known for shedding their needles each fall. The needles grow back each spring and transition from deep green to blue green over the course of the summer. In late September or early October, the needles turn golden and drop, just like the leaves on deciduous trees. Of the mountains in the cluster at left, Liberty Bell Mountain is the leftmost peak; the Early Winters Spires are the tight cluster of three peaks at the center of the mountains shown.

  • A hole-punch cloud is typically formed when an airplane passes through altocumulus clouds. Altocumulus clouds are made up of small, super cooled water droplets. When aircraft pass through these clouds, the rapid pressure changes they cause can cool the air further. That, in turn, causes the water droplets to form heavy ice crystals, which then drop from the sky, leaving behind a "hole punch." This hole-punch cloud was observed in Thurston County, Washington. Hole-punch clouds are also sometimes called sky-punch clouds.

The upper falls are more than 200 feet (60 meters) across and portions of the waterfall freeze in winter. The water of the Tahquamenon River appears brown or red because of tannic acid that results from the organic material generated by the cedar, hemlock and spruce forests along the river.

  • A bald eagle drops a red fox after stealing the European rabbit the fox had caught in San Juan Island National Historical Park in Washington state. When the bald eagle grabbed the rabbit, it inadvertently also caught the fox, lifting both more than 20 feet into the air. The fox swung back and forth trying to take the rabbit back. The bald eagle released the fox and flew off with the rabbit. The whole struggle lasted 8 seconds. Both European rabbits (Oryctolagus cunuculus) and red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) were introduced to San Juan Island. The rabbits were introduced to the island in the 1890s by settlers; foxes were introduced occasionally in the 1900s. The European rabbits in particular are considered an invasive species, turning the prairie into an unsustainable barren landscape with their vast burrows. This displaces small native mammals, such as the Townsend's vole. While bald eagles and foxes occasionally hunt rabbits, it is a relatively rare occurrence. Up to 97 percent of an eagle's diet consists of fish and birds; red foxes more commonly eat berries, insects and small mammals, like the vole.

  • Several layers of Berea sandstone are visible near the top of Brandywine Falls, a 60-foot (18-meter) waterfall located in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park, Ohio. Brandywine Falls drops overs over three different types of rock: Berea sandstone at the top, Bedford shale in the middle and Cleveland shale at the bottom. The newest rock is about 320 million years old; the oldest is about 400 million. The layers were exposed and the waterfall was formed about 10,000 years ago when the last glaciers retreated from the area.

  • Paulina Creek drops 80 feet (24 meters) at Paulina Falls, located in the Newberry National Volcanic Monument in Deschutes County, Oregon. Paulina Falls is located on the west flank of the Newberry Volcano, a potentially active volcano that last erupted nearly 1,500 years ago. The waterfall flows over and erodes remnants of previous eruptions; over a period of 2,000 years, geologists believe the waterfall has moved 200 feet (61 meters) upstream due to erosion.

  • Fall colors line the bluff at Tomichi Point, high above the Gunnison River in Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park, Colorado. The gorge is the steepest in North America, dropping 2,772 feet (845 meters) at one point. It's called the Black Canyon because it's so steep in places that light doesn't reach the bottom.
    CO_Gunnison_TomichiPoint_1941.jpg
  • The fast-moving Gunnison River carves a deep gorge in the rock at Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park in Colorado. Near this point, the Gunnison River drops 240 feet per mile (45 m/km), causing it to gain speed and strength to erode tougher rock. The Gunnison River drops more within the national park than the Mississippi River does between Minnesota and the Gulf of Mexico.

  • Brandywine Falls drops 65 feet (20 meters) into a lush gorge in Cuyahoga Valley National Park, Ohio. Brandywine Falls drops overs over three different types of rock: Berea sandstone at the top, Bedford shale in the middle and Cleveland shale at the bottom. The newest rock is about 320 million years old; the oldest is about 400 million. The layers were exposed and the waterfall was formed about 10,000 years ago when the last glaciers retreated from the area. The top Berea sandstone layer is the hardest and protects the softer layers below from the erosive force of the falling water.

  • Falling water vanishes into a cloud of mist at Horseshoe Falls, one of the waterfalls that make up Niagara Falls on the border of New York and Ontario. About 90 percent of the water in the Niagara River flows over Horseshoe Falls, which amounts to about 600,000 gallons (2.3 million liters) of water per second. The waterfall is about a half-mile wide, with a brink length of 2600 feet (792 meters), and it is 167 feet (51 meters) high. Horseshoe Falls is also known as Canadian Falls, since about two-thirds of it is located in Canada.

  • Horsetail Fall, an ephemeral waterfall that plunges from the top of El Capitan in Yosemite National Park, California, is reddened by the setting sun. The waterfall, which flows only for a few weeks each year in late winter and early spring, drops a total of 2,130 feet (650 meters). Horsetail Fall is best known for its dramatic "fire fall" effect, which if the weather and water supply conditions are just right, occurs each year in late February when the setting sun directly lights up the waterfall.
