As the time goes on, the ice melted northward in which it bursts out massive amount of meltwater into these basins.

As the River spanning from the Canadian-United States International Border as well as the Province of Ontario and the State of the New York, there were about 12 million tourists come to visit the river because of its captivating and striking scenery.
