gushing, racing, surging or powerful! Explanation: some more options. I think powerful or mighty, suggested above, may be best. gushing I think says the right thing, but it's not (IMO) a very attractive word for a tourist brochure - don't know why just don't like the sound! surging is a possibility, though it might suggest that the rivers are about to break their banks and flood your lovely spot! if I have any better ideas I'll add them later. |
