 Everglades article - Everglades tropical marshland U.S. state Florida Monroe Collier Palm Beach - What-Means.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Although much modified by agricultural development in central and southern Florida, the Everglades is the southern half of a large watershed arising in the vicinity of Orlando as the Kissimmee River system.
The Kissimmee—and flows from Taylor Creek, Nubbin Slough, and Fisheating Creek—discharges into Lake Okeechobee, a very large (730 mi² or 1,890 km²), shallow (10 ft or 3 m) fresh water lake.
Water leaving Lake Okeechobee in the wet season forms the Everglades, an annual shallow, slow-moving flood at one time 40 miles wide and over 100 miles long moving southward across a nearly flat, limestone shelf to Florida Bay at the southern end of the state.

The sand and silt of the 200 to 600 foot (60 to 180 m) thick Kayenta Formation were laid down in Early Jurassic time in slower-moving intermittent streambeds in a semi-arid to tropical environment.
Evidence for this period can be seen in the Taylor Creek area in the Kolob section of the park.
This steepened the stream gradient of the ancestral Virgin River s (Zion Canyon section of the park), and Taylor and La Verkin creeks (Kolob Canyons section of the park), causing them to flow and downcut faster into the underlying Markagunt Plateau.
