Page "Geography of Grenada" Paragraph 7

Although many of the rocks and soils are of volcanic origin, the volcanic cones dotting Grenada are long dormant.

The only known active volcano in the area is Kick_ ' em_Jenny, just north between Grenada and Carriacou.

Some of the drainage features on Grenada remain from its volcanic past.

There are a few crater lakes, the largest of which is Grand Etang.

The swift upper reaches of rivers, which occasionally overflow and cause flooding and landslides, generally cut deeply into the conic slopes.

By contrast, many of the water courses in the lowlands tend to be sluggish and meandering.
