GEO_PLATE_G-12.HTML An arête is "a narrow serrate mountain crest or rocky sharp-edged ridge or spur, commonly present above the snowline in rugged mountains (as in the Swiss Alps) sculpted by glaciers, and resulting from the continued backward growth of the walls of adjoining cirques" (Bates and Jackson, 1980) (see also Figures 9-20, G-8.2 and G-12.1). According to Horvath (1975), the Ural Mountains (Ural´skiy khrebet) contain a core of crystalline rocks with folded Paleozoic and Mesozoic rocks on the west. This Plate is a Landsat image of a part of the Ural Mountains of the Soviet Union showing the characteristic scalloped pattern of numerous cirques, some of which contain cirque glaciers. daac.gsfc.nasa.gov /geomorphology/GEO_9/GEO_PLATE_G-12.HTML   (675 words)

Mapping road Systems for Determining Road Erosion and Sediment Delivery at the Landscape Scale Three watersheds in the Ouachita Mountains north of Hot Springs, AR and one watershed in the Boston Mountains northeast of Russellville, AR were used in the study. Mill Creek is located in the Boston Mountains in the Ozark St. Francis National Forest, Arkansas. The goal of this study is to create a GPS/GIS inventory of road systems on representative watersheds in the Ouachita and Boston Mountains of Arkansas that can be used to perform an analysis of road effects. www.okstate.edu /ag/asnr/fore/research/turton/mappingroadsystems/mapping_road_systems.html   (477 words)

Journal of the Geological Society: Structure and timing of transpressional deformation in the Shackleton Glacier area, Ross orogen, Antarctica Rocks of the Ross orogen unconformably underlie Devonian-Jurassic sedimentary rocks of the Beacon Supergroup in the Transantarctic Mountains, a major Cenozoic rift flank uplift (Figs 1 and 2; Fitzgerald 1992; Stump 1995; Isbell 1999). Basement of the Transantarctic Mountains comprises the Ross orogenic belt, a Neoproterozoic to Ordovician mobile belt located along the palaeo-Pacific margin of Gondwana.

2000-002068_Snow.txt We assign Tertiary strata throughout the Cottonwood, Panamint, Grapevine, and Funeral Mountains to time-transgressive tectono-sequences of early, syn-, and late extensional age relative to development of the extended terrane. LA English AB When considered within a regional, tectono-sequence stratigraphic framework, Cenozoic strata in the Cottonwood Mountains provide a relatively complete record of major extensional tectonism within the Death Valley region, California and Nevada. Strata of the synextensional Amargosa Sequence, including the Leadfield, Bat Mountain, Artist Drive, and Navadu Formations, were deposited within the Bullfrog, Furnace Creek, and Nova sedimentary basins that developed as range-scale crustal fragments progressively separated during regional large-magnitude extension. navdat.geo.ku.edu /uploads/2000-002068_Snow.txt   (1328 words)

Trust Islam -> Sahaba Stories Aminah told him that she was too grief-striken and weak to leave for the mountains but insisted that Abrahah could never enter Makkah and destroy the Kabah because it was protected by the Lord. Aminah however became even more distressed when Abd al-Muttalib came and told her she had to leave her home and go to the mountains as other Makkans had done because of an impending attack on the city by the ruler of Yemen, someone called Abrahah. When Abd al-Muttalib died two years later, she went with the child to the house of his uncle Abu Talib and continued to look after his needs until he was grown up and married the lady Khadijah. www.trustislam.com /studiobb/index.php?showtopic=6153   (1328 words)

Encyclopedia: Balkan mountains The highest peak of the region is Musala (2,925 m) in the Vitosha mountains near Sofija (Rila range), closely followed by Vikren (Rila range) and Greek Olympus. The Stara Planina ("Old Mountains") or Balkan mountain range is an extension of the Carpathian mountain range, separated from it by the Danube River. In earlier times the mountains were known as the Haemus Mons, a name that is believed to derive from the Thracian Ime (or Imeon, Aemon), rendered as Aimon and Saimon in Greek. www.nationmaster.com /encyclopedia/Balkan-mountains   (1328 words)

Balkans Elsewhere, land cultivation is mostly unsuccessful because of the mountains, hot summers and poor soils, although certain cultures such as olives and grapes flourish. In the northern part of the peninsula and on the mountains, winters are frosty and snowy, while summers are hot and dry. On the coasts the climate is Mediterranean, in the inland it is moderate continental. www.brainyencyclopedia.com /encyclopedia/b/ba/balkans.html   (1328 words)

THE CHELAN QUADRANGLE, CENTRAL WASHINGTON The Chelan Mountains terrane is dominated by the Chelan Complex of Hopson and Mattinson (1971) which is composed of migmatite and gneissic to tonalite of deep-seated igneous and metamorphic (Waters, 1938; Hopson, 1955; Hopson and Mattinson, 1971). These ancient debris-flow deposits from the Entiat Mountains indicate that the digitate margin of valley-filling basalt in the Entiat Mountains formerly extended a few kilometers northwest of the most distal outliers. Page (1939a, b) detailed much of the structure and petrology of the metamorphic and igneous rocks in the Chiwaukum Mountains, further described the arkoses, and, for the first time, defined the alpine glacial stages in the area. www.noblegeorges.com /timeline/location/chelpama.htm   (1328 words)

King's River: AR 74 to MO 86 The upper sections of the King’s River are in the Boston Mountains and tend to have a greater drop per mile than the lower sections, which are in the Springfield and Salem Plateaus. Boston is the headwaters for two other notable streams, the Mulberry River on the south side of AR 16 and War Eagle Creek on the northwest side of town. The river itself is not too difficult, with class II rapids the norm. www.trails.com /tcatalog_trail.asp?AffID=mz01&TrailID=CGM011-031   (193 words)

Travel Guide - Online Reservation - Warsaw Accommodation When Melkor was released from his captivity, he fled to Avathar, scaled the mountains with Ungoliant's help, and wrought destruction of great consequence in Aman. For reasons unknown, the Valar left two lands outside the wall of the Pelóri: Araman to the northeast and Avathar to the southeast. Seeking to isolate themselves, they raised a great mountain fence, called the Pelóri, on the eastern coast, and set the Enchanted Isles in the ocean to prevent travelers by sea from reaching Aman. www.warsaw-hotel.info /poland-guide/Aman   (193 words)

Summary of Citation Mapped as a cap on flat-topped, southward-protruding shoulders of the Uinta Mountains that seldom form outcrops because it is weakly cemented and commonly covered by well-developed soil. The age of the Bishop Conglomerate is problematical, but based on K-Ar ages of tuff beds exposed in the unit elsewhere in the eastern Uinta Mountains (G. Winkler, written commun., 1969), it is generally considered to be Oligocene.

SummitPost.org - Message Board - Southwest (AZ, NM, NV, UT, TX) - Question about the Uinta Mountains This is from Scott Patterson's postings of peaks in the Uinta's: The Uinta Mountains are one of the only mountain ranges in North America that run east to west rather than north to south. Some others are Williams Fork Mountains (small range) in NW CO, West Elks CO (and sort of the Elks themselves), Little Belt Mountains MT, Whites in NH, Raft River Mountains UT, etc. There are a number of them, but they are still rare. If you count the stuff in the middle sections of the counrty as mountain ranges, there are the Mesabi's and other small ranges in the Midwest as well as the ones in OK and AR as mentioned. www.summitpost.org /show/mread.pl?f_id=23&t_id=1382   (536 words)

Andrew's Web Site - Torngats 2004 - August 2004 The Torngat Mountains are located in northern Labrador and North-Eastern Quebec, East of Ungava Bay. They are therefore primarily composed of ancient igneous rocks that have been eroded and metamorphosed over the several billion years of their existence; The rocky mountains are orders of magnitude younger by comparison. The East/West watershed that marks the crest of the mountains serves also as the provincial boundary. alavigne.homeip.net /newHomePage/Outdoors/TripReports/Torngats2004/index.jsp?navpage=guide   (536 words)

PYRENEES (WILD SPAIN) For alpinists and expert skiers there are the high mountains; for hikers and back-packers, lush meadows and magnificent forests; for families with small children, village inns on the banks of shallow mountain streams where toddlers can splash and float toy boats. The mountains of Navarra are gentler and less rugged than the rest of the Pyrenees, and the villages look correspondingly more prosperous: it is a lot easier to farm the lush, gradual slopes at the western end of the range. The Pyrenees have been my favourite mountains for at least 25 years, ever since I first hiked and climbed in the parks of Ordesa and Aigüestortes during the 1960s, and started skiing in the Vall d'Aran (Valle de Arán). www.sheldrakepress.demon.co.uk /Live/nav/travel/ws/wsch0100.html   (536 words)

National Geographic Adventure Magazine: Excerpts--March 2002 For a resort-riding intermediate like me, spending a few days in clinic with these guys—riding a plank of slippery fiberglass through the wildest mountains in the heart of the continent—was an irresistible opportunity to be enlightened, humiliated, or both. The daunting peaks, jagged arêtes, and talus-strewn plateaus of the Beartooths are composed of some of the most ancient exposed rocks on Earth: more than three billion years old. There was no question it was a dicier than average year—one of the worst in a decade—but all three of my companions were well versed in avalanche avoidance (and recovery). www.nationalgeographic.com /adventure/0203/story.html   (2770 words)

The interior of the Fordyce is a strange mixture of the elegant and the obsolete; the heavy use of marble, mosaic-tile floors and the stained-glass ceiling of the Sun Room lend it a decadent feel (daily 9am-5pm; free; tel 501/624-3383). Downtown Hot Springs is crammed into a looping wooded valley, barely wide enough to accommodate Central Avenue. www.hotspringsarkansashotel.org   (2770 words)
