Re: On Meanders

It's cut wider at the top and then narrower toward the bottom, showing that the river was very big when the meander was first being cut.
Someone doesn't understand how basic erosion works. That river could have been *smaller* when it started cutting and the walls would still slope back like that.

Re: On Meanders
The walls are always attempting to reach their particular angle of repose (which of course varies with material).
