Abstract
Uniformitarian geology is based on long periods of time which are demanded for the formation of geomorphic features found on Earth. According to this doctrine, most extant geomorphic structures required millions of years of slow and gradual processes for their formation (Dunbar, 1955). In contrast to this, the Young-Earth Flood model predicts that these features were formed within the last few thousand years while undergoing the effects of high-energy, short-term, catastrophic processes (Gish, 1985). Conditions which favored rapid modification of the Earth’s surface were present during the period of the Flood Event and the subsequent Ice Age (following the geologic framework proposed by Froede, 1998). DeSoto Falls, located in DeSoto State Park, Alabama, is such a geomorphic feature that is best explained within the framework of the Young-Earth Flood model.
