Hydraulic Jumps?
I am sure you are familiar with Bob Whelan's "Exploring the Monster." about the early wave experiments in the Owens Valley in the 1950's. The Owens and Sierra Nevada wave is a classic example of what a hydraulic jump can offer. 49,000 ft. off of a 14,000 foot mountain range is pretty impressive. (Bob Harris 1986, G-102)
