Trent River is located about three kilometers south of Courtenay, BC on Vancouver Island. It is a great walk in August when the river is down and you can walk the river bed without getting your feet wet. The bank is made of marine shale. It is a magical place that is 80 million years old. It is has numerous crystal clear swimming holes and if you are a fossil hunter it is a great place to spend an afternoon banging rocks and looking for a treasure of years past.

Hierve Al Agua
Hierve el Agua (Spanish for "the water boils") is set of natural rock formations in the Mexican state of Oaxaca that resemble cascades of water. The site is located about 70 km east of Oaxaca city, past Mitla, in the municipality of San Lorenzo Albarradas, with a narrow, winding unpaved road leading to the site. The site consists of two rock shelves or cliffs which rise between fifty and ninety metres from the valley below, from which extend nearly white rock formations which look like waterfalls. These formations are created by fresh water springs, whose water is over-saturated with calcium carbonate and other minerals. As the water scurries over the cliffs, the excess minerals are deposited, much in the same manner that stalactites are formed in caves. One of the cliffs, called the "cascada chica" (small waterfall) or the Amphitheatre, contains two large artificial pools for swimming as well as a number of small natural pools. One of the artificial pools is very near the edge of the cliff.
The only way to see anything and to maneuver through the tunnel was to use my camera's flash, then take a few steps. Water pooled on the floor and small stalactites were forming everywhere. It was freezing cold.
This is part of the raised metal platform.

The Pizzi Bianchi (White Peaks) which overlook the south coast of Ischia. The peaks are made of white tufa, eroded and sculpted over centuries by the weather.
