    When I was a kid living in the mountains of Georgia, the TVA and the Army Corps of Engineers teamed to dam the Coosawatee River, eventually inundating a vast, uninhabited gorge that could have been one of the largest wilderness areas in the eastern US. No one proposed that, of course, and so the forests, waterfalls, and river are now drowned under 400 feet of water by Carters Lake.

    It looked like an exciting and unique formation until I realized it's just the remnant of a despoiled (and likely) toxic industrial site. Before machinery arrived to gouge out the surrounding formation, it was utterly invisible. I assume the water in those ponds must be poisonous since I saw no sign of fish or insects. An unearthed escapment. It's like getting excited by a deep road cut through the rock along a highway. I guess it's interesting if you're into exploring abandoned coal mines.

Lumbering and coal mining over 300 years have absolutely spoiled that. But you do with what our ancestors left us, eh? What keeps me from getting too upset about this site is that geology students from all over take field trips here to learn about these formations that they might otherwise never see.
