A "Living" Waterfall, No Music
Enjoy this educational art film about Gorman Falls at Colorado Bend State Park, Bend, Texas, USA (NO MUSIC VERSION). Unlike many waterfalls, Gorman Falls gradually grows larger over time instead of becoming smaller. Thousands of years ago this waterfall was nothing more than a spring-fed stream meandering through a flat valley. Dissolved minerals in the water (calcium carbonate) settled to the bottom, depositing on tiny water plants and other surfaces. Over time, these deposits built up, forming a sedimentary rock called travertine. At Gorman Falls this travertine is approximately 650 feet (183 meters) wide and 60 feet (18 meters) thick. This tipe of depositing is known as a constructed waterfall. Layers of travertine preserve many centuries of evidence about the environment, climate and human habitation. Gorman Falls took centuries to form, but it can be destroyed in minutes by walking on the soft rock. It is very likely that remains of ancient plants and animals lie entombed within the rock, as well as traces of the prehistoric peoples who occupied this area 10,000 years ago.
