straight with a wide channel

Answer 1

The river channel that results from a high-gradient, high-volume river flow is typically "shallow with a braided channel." Braided channels commonly form in high-energy environments where there is a significant amount of sediment transport and a variable flow, which is characteristic of high-gradient rivers.
