- Horseshoe Bend is a dramatic example of a geological combination of a canyon and a river bend. First, a traditional meander was formed as faster moving water eroded the wider or outer part of the river and then deposited the silt on the inside of the river. Over time, this gradual cycle of erosion and deposition bent the river’s path to form.
