Manitou Springs Geology: The Garden of the Gods and the Pike's Peak Region. This paper will discus the creation of the geological formations that are called The Garden of the Gods, as well as the Manitou Springs Formation in the Colorado region of the United States. By understanding their age, by the layers of sediment that have been made from them, as well as the formations that they now represent, we can see how these natural wonders were made on a geological scale. By realizing the aging process that rock goes through in its many incarnations, the affects of the environment, and the possibilities of platectonic influence will be explained in detail. With all of these factors playing into the creation of these natural structures, we can see the many-layered world of geology forming the Earth according to patterns in nature, the Earth's core, and other elements that carve the rock into these majestic land objects. 13 pgs, bibliography lists 10 sources.
