This is an area near Anvil Points, CO.  Which topographic profile best fits the line drawn form Point A to Point B.  To answer the question accurately I suggest that you make a sketch (as shown in the PowerPoint) of the topographic profile.  Use every index contour line and pay attention to detail.

BE SURE TO NOTICE THE POINT VALUE FOR EACH QUESTION.

( For some reason the bottom two map profiles did not have a name.  The bottom left is "O" and the bottom right is "X".)

Using the Anvil Points, CO map, what stage in the cycle of stream erosions are the small streams near the bottom of the map?

This map shows part of the Inner Gorge of the Grand Canyon.  From this view, what cycle of stream erosion is shown?

From the Inner Gorge of the Grand Canyon map you can see Phantom Ranch just north of the Colorado River.  Running past the ranch is a small stream called Bright Angel Creek (not labeled on map).  From what little you can see of the stream, what is its cycle of stream erosion?

Oolitic, Indiana is named for the oolitic limestone that is quarried in the area.  In what cycle of stream erosion is main river on this topographic map?

Oolitic Indiana is famous for limestone quarries and has a number of sink holes in the surrounding area.  Determine which topographic profile best fist the profile line from A to B.

This part of the Oolitic Indiana map has a shaded green area.  What does this feature represent?

From the Oolitic Indiana map a sinkhole is indicated by the red arrow.  Which statement is true about its elevation based on the contour lines?

This is the famous Cumberland Gap (The Narrows) of the Appalachian Mountains.  Wills River has cut through Wills Mountain (a folded rock unit) to produce the Gap. What is the drainage pattern shown by the streams on this map.  The streams have been enhanced by blue.

Using the Cumberland map, what is the cycle of stream erosion displayed by the Wills River as it passes through The Narrows?

Monadnock, New Hampshire, is an example of an erosional remnant.  It is resistant core of quartzite.  What is the drainage patterns displayed by the streams along the flanks of the mountain?  Streams have been highlighted in blue.

The streams on the Monadnock map are in this stage of the cycle of stream evolution?

Voltaire North Dakota is an area that has been scoured by glacial ice during the last Ice Age.  Currently, what is the cycle of stream erosion displayed by the Souris River at the top of the map?

This is a part of the Voltaire North Dakota map.  The area highlighted and indicated by the green arrow is

This is a small portion of the Volaire, North Dakota map.  What is the elevation at the green dot?

Strasburg Virginia Map - This map displays a very interesting stream with very evenly space meanders.  Look closely at the terrain and determine the cycle of stream erosion this stream is displaying on the map.

Ewing Kentucky Map -This area is along the folded mountains of the Appalachians.  Looking at the highlighted stream valleys, what is the drainage pattern displayed?
