Answer:

The Olympic Forest was originally designated as the Olympic Forest Reserve but was renamed to the Olympic National Forest in the early 1900s. This region also contains several wilderness areas including the Brothers Wilderness, Buckhorn Wilderness, Colonel Bob Wilderness, Mt. Skokomish Wilderness, and Wonder Mountain Wilderness that are administered by two ranger districts – the Pacific Ranger District and the Hood Canal Ranger District.

There are 6 named mountains in Tiger Mountain State Forest. The highest and most prominent peak is East Tiger Mountain at 3,004 ft. The remaining peaks, from east to west, include West Tiger 1 at 2,958 ft, West Tiger 2 at 2,757 ft, and West Tiger 3 at 2,557 ft. The remaining two peaks are located just south of the main ridge and include Middle Tiger at 2,607 ft and South Tiger at 2,028 ft.

Tiger Mountain State Forest is one the most heavily trafficked forests in the entire state being located so close to Seattle. The forest has over half a dozen trails that lead to the top of one of the many peaks as well as numerous trails that traverse sections of the forest. The forest is known by locals for its accessibility, lush landscape, hiking, running, and mountain biking trails.

what are the effects of poor service delivery in a community...socially,economically and environmentally

Thepotemich [5.8K]

The effects socially would be that the delivery will not be well respected and their will be conflict between the deliver and customer, business, etc . The effects economically would be that the business will start to decline in customers of interest in that area and potentially will make a bad name for that business in general, meaning less business and less money. This leads to a drop in business status worldwide. The effects environmentally are possibly limitless, it affects everything. By the service being poor many things and people could suffer, including greenery and yardwork or whatever. There will be an effect on environment but it depends on the service and how poor it is.

Explain how an igneous rock like granite changes into a sandstone?

Leokris [45]

Answer:

Granite changes into sandstone by means of weathering and erosion. Through the passage of time, fragments of granite are broken down into smaller pieces, or sediments, which are transported and deposited at the bottom of the oceans or rivers. These particles form layers of sand and pebbles that undergo compaction and cementation to create sandstone.
