Question

How are gorges formed?

Answer 1

$\huge\mathfrak\red{ANSWER}$

Softer layers of surface rock erode. Erosion and geologic uplift often work together to create gorges. ... As rivers or streams flow across this uplifted surface, waterfalls form. Over time, the power of the waterfall erodes the softer rock layers underneath, causing the original river bed to collapse and create a gorge.
