📍 Little River Canyon

Little River Canyon in northeast Alabama is a scenic area of sandstone cliffs, waterfalls, wooded trails and mountaintop views. The Conservation Fund describes Little River as America's longest mountaintop river.

The video highlights angular and L-shaped rock formations, compares them with blocks at Machu Picchu and Puma Punku, and argues that some rocks were forced into a cliff face with no visible source above. The comparisons and forced-placement interpretation are the presenter's claims, not established archaeological findings.
