Historical Features are physical or cultural features that are no longer visible on the landscape. Examples: a dried up lake, a destroyed building, a hill leveled by mining. The term makes no reference to the age, use, or any other aspect of the feature. A ghost town, for example, is not a historical feature if it is still visible.
Beach - The sloping shore along a body of water that is washed by waves or tides and is usually covered by
sand or gravel (coast, shore, strand).
