Little Cottonwood Canyon lies with the Wasatch Cache, National forest, and along with
the eastern side of the Salt Lake Valley Roughly down 15 miles from Salt Lake City, Utah. The
ground strew with boulders and detached masses, fallen from the walls of white rocks reaching
towards the distant rig lines behind the thick green vegetation shape is like a “U” the
magnificent trees species which thrives in the floodplain and riparian forest ecosystems. The
trees are forest growing and relatively short lives and provide immense habitat values of live
monzonite sources on wildlife. Many plants cannot cope with saturated soil and periodic
flooding that occur on rivers flooding plains with secrets along lakeshores Cottonwood grow
quickly and die relatively young needs to a forest include many lies throw large trees and snags
which are important to variety of wildlife species the descent down Cottonwood creek is a
human gout, impressive views of the surrounding me with approximately that changes every

Tributaries and high-elevation basing was fill with hundreds of feet of glacial ice

and extended in to lake Bonneville, calving icebergs into the ice age. The canyon expends throw

smooth creating a deep and wider U shaped. The head of canyon where glacial ice originates,
glaciers carve out amphitheater shape basins (cirques) partially bounded by high, steep walls
typically, small lakes (tarns secret) from in this depression after the glaciers have retreated.
Rock fragments embedded in the base of a glacier will carve multiple, parallel linear grooves
into underlying bedrocks (glacial striations) and clearly show the directions of glacier flow
showing my way down the rocks, including house- size boulders that are carried by glacial ice
from source. The Cottonwood canyon glacier reached only about 15 miles down the canyon
where it abruptly the lower 9 miles of the canyon are marrow and very twisty which is a
characteristic result of stream erosion. Evidence that glaciers occupied the canyon from this
point on up the canyon the main glacier range in depth from so to 800 feet the Little
Cottonwood Canyon glaciers was the boniest 12 miles glacier in the Wasatch range, extending
beyond he canyon mouth and entering lake Bonneville glacier ranged in various land cover

Quartz Monzonite large snags with impressive views cropping with water deeps out the trans.
All the time I go to Cottonwood Canyon it remind me of my childhood in when I used to spend
time with my father and the different way he will show me he love mu and he there for me but
now it’s just memory’s blow in the air made from rock divided by narrow ridge showing
tributaries high-elevation base were I used to be with my farther in the pasts and how caring
and loving he was with his family deep down we miss him but time can only tell now at days.my
family divided like a boulders and the walls of rocks and narrowed soil and grow quickly and die
relatively young.
