CASCADE BROOKS

Although there are many various rivers that run throughout the mountains, the Cascade Brooks are by far the most vital water source of the Lawaii. All of the smaller brooks run into one, forming the Cascade Brooks – a river of sorts, although the current is not so strong. One side of the rocky bank rises up higher than the other, providing a good outlook post if someone wishes to keep watch while another collects water. A willow tree growing on this bank extends some distance out over the water, providing shade and comfort. The other, lower bank is littered with debris – fish bones, rocks, logs, sticks, and is not nearly so comfortable. When it rains heavily, this bank tends to become flooded and muddy. The Cascade Brooks eventually split again into smaller rivulets as it runs down the mountain sides towards the valleys.
