"Deception Deception is an act or statement which misleads, hides the truth, or promotes a belief, concept, or idea that is not true. It is often done for personal gain or advantage. Deception can involve dissimulation, propaganda, and sleight of hand, as well as distraction, camouflage, or concealment. There is also self-deception, as in bad faith. It can also be called, with varying subjective implications, beguilement, deceit, bluff, mystification, ruse, or subterfuge. Deception is a major relational transgression that often leads to feelings of betrayal and distrust between relational partners. Deception violates relational rules and is considered to be a"
"of the ""Boston Herald"". Later G.A. Whitehead of the U.S. Forest Service renamed it Mount Deception due to the difficulty mountaineers had in locating climbing routes on the often cloud-covered peak. Unlike the peaks of Gray Wolf Ridge, which are scalable for fit and determined day hikers, mountaineering skills are necessary for Mount Deception itself. While not a particularly technical climb it is steep and exposed. If a climber falls and does not arrest immediately, loose rock and rotten snow may make it difficult to stop falling for some distance. Fatalities have occurred on Mount Deception and the National Park"

Deception Creek, a tributary of the Dosewallips River, drains the southern slope of Mount Deception. Gray Wolf Pass is located about west of Mount Deception. The pass connects the Dungeness and Dosewallips drainage basins. Mount Deception had been given the name Mount Holmes by the Seattle Press Expedition in honor of John H. Holmes"
"cliffs, causing frequent slab failures - slabs from layers of chalk break off, undermining the upper parts of the cliffs, which eventually collapse. In contrast to small rock falls, mass movements are less common. A mass movement happened in 2001 when, after a winter of heavy rain, the water had begun to seep into the cracks which had frozen and caused the cracks to widen. This then made the cliff edge erode and collapse into the sea, destroying a well-known chalk stack called the Devil's Chimney. The name Beachy Head appears as 'Beauchef' in 1274, and was 'Beaucheif' in 1317,"

Active Gaming Media showed that the Japanese text was similarly misleading, but went further describing where and how an accurate hint from the Japanese game was lost.

The fell’s name originates from the Old English language, a combination of the words ""cocc"" and ""hop"", where ""hop"" means a secluded valley and ""cocc"" means a woodcock or black grouse.

They include ones on the Isle of Wight; on the Dorset-Devon border near Lyme Regis; on cliffs near Branscombe in East Devon; and at White Nothe, Dorset. All arose from slump of harder strata over softer clay, giving rise to irregular landscapes of peaks, gullies and slipped blocks, that have become densely vegetated due to their isolation and change of land use. The Kent coast at Folkestone and Sandgate also has similar undercliff areas. The Undercliff on the Isle of Wight skirts"

"Escarpment An escarpment is a steep slope or long cliff that forms as an effect of faulting or erosion and separates two relatively level areas having differing elevations. Usually ""escarpment"" is used interchangeably with scarp. Some sources differentiate the two terms, however, where ""escarpment"" refers to the margin between two landforms, while ""scarp"" is synonymous with a cliff or steep slope. The surface of the steep slope is called a scarp face. This (escarpment) is a ridge which has a gentle (dip) slope on one side and a steep (scarp) slope on the other side. Scarps are generally formed by"
"Rockfall A rockfall or rock-fall refers to quantities of rock falling freely from a cliff face. The term is also used for collapse of rock from roof or walls of mine or quarry workings. A rockfall is a fragment of rock (a block) detached by sliding, toppling, or falling, that falls along a vertical or sub-vertical cliff, proceeds down slope by bouncing and flying along ballistic trajectories or by rolling on talus or debris slopes,” (Varnes, 1978). Alternatively, a ""rockfall is the natural downward motion of a detached block or series of blocks with a small volume involving free falling,"
"the illusion is a completely or mostly obstructed horizon. Without a horizon, it becomes difficult to judge the slope of a surface, as a reliable reference is missing. Objects one would normally assume to be more or less perpendicular to the ground (such as trees) may actually be leaning, offsetting the visual reference. The illusion is similar to the Ames room, in which objects can also appear to roll against gravity. A similar phenomenon—an uphill road that appears flat—is known in bicycle racing as a ""false flat"". Gravity hill A gravity hill, also known as a magnetic hill, mystery hill,"

The word can also refer to a simple weapon consisting of a small bag filled with sand for use as a cudgel typically by criminals, or to the act of striking a person on the head with such a weapon.

"Cliff In geography and geology, a cliff is a vertical, or nearly vertical, rock exposure. Cliffs are formed as erosion landforms by the processes of weathering and erosion. Cliffs are common on coasts, in mountainous areas, escarpments and along rivers. Cliffs are usually formed by rock that is resistant to weathering and erosion. Sedimentary rocks most likely to form cliffs include sandstone, limestone, chalk, and dolomite. Igneous rocks such as granite and basalt also often form cliffs. An escarpment (or scarp) is a type of cliff, formed by the movement of a geologic fault or landslide, or by differential erosion"

"Crater illusion The Crater Illusion also known as the Crater/Dome Illusion or Dome Illusion is an optical illusion which causes impact craters in some images to appear as domes or mountains. It is believed to be caused by our being accustomed to seeing light from overhead. When some images are taken from orbit, the light from the sun is nearly horizontal. This is the only time shadows are seen. Our brains are tricked into thinking that the interior of the crater is above the surrounding terrain instead of below it. In September 2015, NASA released the image on the left"
"Ley (landform) Ley (""the Ley"", plural: the ""Leyen"") is an old German word for rock, cliff or crag which often occurs in placenames. ""Ley"", also ""lay"", ""lei"", ""lai"", ""laige"" or ""lägge"", and, accourding to Grimm, ""leie"", is a commonly occurring name for rocks or crags in the Rhenish and Lower German language regions. It is derived from the Old Saxon word, ""lêia"". It is particularly associated with rock precipices (""Felsabbrüche"") and rock faces (""Felswände""), but also with rock slabs (""Felsplatte""). In addition, it is also used in the sense of shale or slate ""(Leienstein)"", and also to mean ""slate"" in"

"Décollement Décollement () is a gliding plane between two rock masses, also known as a basal detachment fault. Décollements are a deformational structure, resulting in independent styles of deformation in the rocks above and below the fault. They are associated with both compressional settings (involving folding and overthrusting) and extensional settings. The term was first used by geologists studying the structure of the Swiss Jura Mountains, coined in 1907 by A. Buxtorf, who released a paper that theorized that the Jura is the frontal part of a décollement at the base of a nappe, rooted in the faraway Swiss Alps."

This route is also the most common commercially guided route. The term ""cleaver"" is used in the context of a rock ridge that separates two glaciers. The reason for naming this cleaver a ""disappointment"" is unrecorded, but it is thought to be due to climbers reaching it only to recognize their inability to reach the summit. An alternative route to the Disappointment Cleaver is the Ingraham Glacier Direct Route, grade"

"Rock shelter A rock shelter — also rockhouse, crepuscular cave, bluff shelter, or abri — is a shallow cave-like opening at the base of a bluff or cliff. In contrast to solutional cave (karst) caves, which are often many miles long, rock shelters are almost always modest in size and extent. Rock shelters form because a rock stratum such as sandstone that is resistant to erosion and weathering has formed a cliff or bluff, but a softer stratum, more subject to erosion and weathering, lies just below the resistant stratum, and thus undercuts the cliff. In arid areas, wind erosion"

George Vancouver gave it the name ""Deception"" because it had misled him into thinking Whidbey Island was a peninsula. The ""deception"" was heightened due to Whidbey's failure to find the strait at first. In May 1792, Vancouver was anchored near the southern end of Whidbey Island.
