Erosion Path

A few weeks ago some Fifth Grade students, after an enormous rain storm, traveled on their garden path created by previous 5th Graders. What they discovered was surprising. First of all most of the gravel underneath our picnic table had been washed down the path. You may think that they are just footprints, like Christopher, but who listens to him? Anyway that is unlikely because the gravel was carried all along the trail, as shown in the video. The water carried a lot of ribbon and junk through the sewer and out into the forest. Also the tiny creek got a lot deeper and moved some big rocks and soil. Now some plants are starting to grow over the edge because the river got wider.
