Each time there is a major conflict there is different scenery. The first fight scene the Mohicans, Major Duncan Heyward, Cora and Alice and David Gamut are all under a waterfall hiding and the Mohicans leave to go fight in the river. There are Indians in the trees and fighting waist deep in a fast flowing river. The water itself is a conflict dragging the Indians downstream as they fight.
Another scene in the book Chingachgook, Uncas and Hawkeye are tracking the Hurons using there “native skills” like they are hunting them through the woods. The last fight scene in this book they are fighting on a cliff. Gamut is saved by grabbing a branch while Magua plummets to his death by falling off the cliff. The conflict in the story is reflected in nature in many scenes like the violence of the river and the danger of the cliffs.
