A dell is a small valley with trees, often as part of a forest. It may also have a small stream running through it.
Dells are usually formed by the action of a river, stream or flooding in the past.
A dell is usually less than 500 feet between hill crests on either side.
A dell can be found in a forest that has one or more small valleys.
