Annotated Diagram of Bever Park

































A crude first attempt at digital annotated diagram on Blogger. (I had to take a picture and then put that up rather than put in the original document which is in the larger three ring binder.)

Questions: * Why is the valley so large for such a tiny stream that appears to come from nowhere other than storm drains? It appears rounded so perhaps is glacial but also shows influence of water flowing through.
* Is the ledge along the stream by the animal farm bedrock?
* Where do the drainage pipes come from and why were they inserted?

Directions: Travel on Bever Ave SE in Cedar Rapids. Between Memorial Drive SE and 30th St SE turn into the park on the north side of the road. The large boulder is to the west of the pool. Follow the stream down past the avian display. Another entrance accesses Bever off Grand Ave SE.
