The Böse Sieben originates from the eastern regions of the Harz, the sources of the river are the Vietzbach (or Goldbach) and the Dippelsbach, which confluence in Ahlsdorf. Beside from that it has 8 tributaries, the Kliebigbach, Goldgrundbach, Pfaffengrundbach, Saugrundbach, Wolferöder Graben, Hünsche Born, Wilder Graben and the Kalte Graben. Because the river has caused many floods after heavy rainfalls it was named "Willerbach" (mansfeldian dialect for "wild river") in the past. Later in the 19th century it was named "Böse Sieben". It flows through the Süßen See and the Bindersee to the Kernersee, which has no natural outflow.

Relief

On its course to the Süßen See, the Böse Sieben falls well over 200 metres.

Name

The creek's name has been established only since the 19th century; the reasons for this are unclear. Previously it was known as Willerbach ( German for 'wild brook').

Course

The Böse Sieben is fed by two sources, the streams Vietzbach, known also as Goldbach, and Dipplesbach, which unite in Ahlsdorf. According to the LHW, the Böse Sieben is 15.22 km long. Other tributaries include the Kleibigbach, Goldgrundbach, Pfaffengrundbach, Saugrundbach and Wolfroder Bach. Since these can swell rapidly during rains, and cause rampant floods across the Mansfeld region, the explanation for the name may be found here.

gollark: For example, quarrying. CC has turtles. They can dig things. They can move. You can make a quarry out of this, and people have. But in practice, they're not hugely fast or efficient, and it's hard to make it work well in the face of stuff like server restarts, while a dedicated quarrying device from a mod will handle this fine and probably go faster if you can power it somehow.
gollark: I honestly don't think CC is particularly overpowered even with turtles. While it can technically do basically anything, most bigger packs will have special-purpose devices which are more expensive but do it way better, while CC is very annoying to have work.
gollark: Out of all the available APIs in _G the only ones I can see which allow I/O of some sort directly and don't just make some task you can technically already do more convenient are `fs`, `os`, `redstone`, `http`, and `term`. You can, at most, probably disable `http` and `redstone` without breaking everything horribly, and it would still be annoying.
gollark: What other stuff would you disable, anyway? I don't think there's much which isn't just a utility API of some sort which you can disable without more problems.
gollark: Because that won't be hilariously annoying at all!
