Take a look at
The Environment of the Week
2/23/98

Continuing this week with another waterfall, here is Gooseberry Falls in northern Minnesota. This region is one of the most popular natural tourist sites in Minnesota. With a new interpretive center and facilities, the Gooseberry Falls State Park is a great place to visit. The geology of a waterfall causes its formation. Its parent material has areas which are more easily eroded and form the cascades of a waterfall. For more on waterfalls, take a look at our Geology of a Waterfall.

For more information and a listing of past weeks, check out our Environment Archive.

Help us update the information on the geology and scenery of the Environment of the Week. We would love your information and would like to acknowledge you.
