Best Answer

A winding stream is one that does not run in a straight line, but "winds" (rhymes with "find" not with "tinned") its way around obstacles and high spots. This is typical on fairly flat land where the water runs more slowly. On a greater slope the speed of the water tends to gouge out a fairly stright run. Winding streams therefore suggest calm, slow moving water and therefore a calm countryside setting.

What features characterize meandering streams and valleys?

Meandering streams have a sinuous flow pattern with curves and bends, while meandering valleys have a gently sloping, winding shape. Meandering streams often erode the outer banks and deposit sediment on the inner banks, creating point bars. Both streams and valleys develop distinct cutbanks and point bars as water moves along the meandering path.
