Glacial Geology of The Genesee River

Glacial Geology Of The Genesee River

The Genesee River flows northward from its source in northern Pennsylvania to enter Lake Ontario at Rochester, New York.

Famous quotes containing the word river:

    “I’ll love you dear, I’ll love you
    Till China and Africa meet,
    And the river jumps over the mountain
    And the salmon sing in the street.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
