Landform

A Hill Country river canyon — Gorman Falls on mossed travertine, a limestone overlook, and a green bend the plateau kept.

Field note

Gorman Falls is a living spring wall. The overlook reads the Colorado as a horseshoe. Bend is the nearest name. This plate is Colorado Bend State Park, not Colorado National Monument, not Lost Maples, and not a Hill Country ranch.

Colorado Bend keeps Gorman Falls on mossed travertine and a limestone overlook of the river. Bend is the name. This plate is the Texas river park, not Colorado National Monument and not Lost Maples.
