I read recently that where
we are now was once covered in a glacier...I mean, I
knew that from how some of the valleys have been shaped around here...
But the idea that there was actually two here...
The one that was covering us was going west to east and collided with one going north to south and stopped it...So when the west to east one melted first, they reckon that you would have been able to look up at the ice cliff of the north-south one...
The west-east one's melting created a giant lake in the dip where the nearby town is...
There...You learn something new everyday!...
