Niagara Falls History The Park became a national park on April 30th, 1885 , when it signed into law by Governor Hill. The Park officially opened on July 15th , 1885.
How it was formed It was formed by glaciers in the last ice age. It began to form the large freshwater lakes now known as the Great Lakes. The water in Lake Erie ran downhill toward Lake Ontario, forming a river.
Types of rocks The first layer has a shale . The second more softer has sandstone. The third is another Shale. The forth has some limestone , and the fifth has another shale. These are the layers of the rocks in Niagara falls.
