Bifurcated channel and river cliff on the lower section of the Bloody Bridge River

The Bloody Bridge River has incised itself into the surface of the narrow coastal plain. The coastal plain is composed of a great thickness of glacial debris and this is exposed in the river cliff. Eroded debris has formed islands on the river bed which causes the river to split up into channels.
