New enough. Long enough. QPQ done. NPOV. Hook is intersting and checks out with the cited source. I added the cite after the sentence about the water, and disambiguated "crest". Earwig and spot-checking found no close paraphrasing issues, copyright violations or plagiarism. Everything is well-cited. Edwardx (talk) 13:11, 4 February 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for the review, Edwardx. I am adding an image, could you please check it? Moonraker (talk) 07:39, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
