  • 2014 National History Bowl National Championships Round
    United States Geography Olympiad Final Round 1. This map line is crossed by a continuous nature preserve known on one side as Blackwater River State Forest and the other as Conecuh National Forest. This boundary runs north-south along the eastern side of Baldwin County, and is mostly parallel to the "Redneck Riviera." The Perdido River was the end of the "Addition of 1812" that created the "foot" on the west of this boundary. A bar sitting on Perdido Key has space on both sides of this border, which runs through an area often jokingly referred to as "L.A." and is just a few miles west of Pensacola. For the point, identify this boundary which mostly runs east-west and separates the western side of a panhandle from another state. ANSWER: the border between Alabama and Florida [order not important, but do not accept or prompt if only one answer is given] 019-13-94-33101 2. The Rondout, Neversink, and Ashokan reservoirs are among the artificial lakes in these mountains. The northern portion of these mountains are the Helderberg Hills, and the Blackhead range in these mountains is the location of Thomas Cole Mountain. The highest point of these mountains is Slide Mountain. Several resorts in these mountains were the location of early stand-up comedy shows in the so-called borscht belt, and Rip Van Winkle fell asleep in these mountains in a Washington Irving story. For the point, name these mountains of the Appalachian system that are bounded by the Mohawk and Hudson river valleys and located in southeastern New York.

Geography and geology allow us to compare our place in the world with all others, and teach people about the nature of their world and their place in it. Translated, geography means a description of the Earth (geo means Earth, and graphia means description).

    Greene County Historical Society ",•·n;,e Lan~llip Van Winkle" GREENE COUNTY CVATBKILLI 1, , 1<._ichard S.1la1·1·cii-- Digitized by the Vedder Research Library 2018 Greene County Historical Society THE GREENE COUNTY CA1SKILLS N THE WEST BANK OF THE HUDSON RIVER, at distances varying from eight to ten miles back from the river, ranges of mountains extend from a point northwest of the City of Kings­ ton, northward for a distance of nearly thirty miles, and loom upward toward the skies to an elevation of three thousand feet above sea level. These ranges extend westward for more than forty miles, covering parts of Ulster and Delaware and nearly all of Greene Counties, and are best known as the Catskills, the fabled Land of Rip Van Winkle. Within the borders of the Catskills will be found nearly a hundred villages and hamlets, located at the highest elevations east of the Rocky Mountains and enjoying temperatures that average from fifteen to twenty degrees lower than that of the seaboard cit ies, so it is not surprising that the region is the most popular and the best known of the American Sum­ mer Resort Sections, with a summer patronage that is conservatively placed at a quarter of a million visitors annually. Formed, according to m.odern geologists, by drift from the lost Ap­ palachia, the atmosphere of romance that has for more than a century surrounded the section has been somewhat enhanced by late discoveries, including the oldest forests in the world, found during the excavations for the extension of the New York City Water Supply, and the re-location of the Indian Flint Mines last year at Coxsackie.
