Cave entrances

A cave entrance is the natural surface opening through which a cave, cavern, lava tube, sea cave, or other underground void connects with the exterior. Entrances may form through dissolution, erosion, lava drainage, fracture enlargement, or collapse depending on the surrounding geology. The mapped feature normally identifies the opening itself and should not be treated as a representation of the full underground system.

Mountain ranges

A mountain range is an extended system of connected mountains, peaks, ridges, and intervening highland terrain linked by geography, structure, or geological history. Ranges can span regions and countries and may contain smaller massifs, subranges, plateaus, valleys, and basins. The category represents the broad mountain system rather than any single summit or compact mountain block.

Valleys

A valley is an elongated area of lower ground between hills, mountains, ridges, or plateaus, commonly organized around a river, stream, glacier, or former drainage path. Valleys may be carved by flowing water or ice, controlled by faults and folds, or shaped by combinations of erosion and deposition. The type is broader than a narrow gorge and describes the containing landform rather than only the watercourse or settlement within it.
