[edit]DescriptionSentry Island, Nunavut, is a long, low sandy esker, that pokes into Hudson's Bay (5938702722).jpg |
Walking on tundra at Sentry Island. The entire island is a long, low sandy esker (an in-glacier river bed) atop of glacial tills reworked by the marine beaches falling out of Hudson Bay. An esker is an in-glacier river during the melting of all that ice. The eskers hereabouts, like the continental glacier, flowed from west to east into Hudson Bay. The photo faces west or "up-stream" and "up-ice". The horizon is the mainland. The land hereabouts is still rising from the release of the weight of continental ice melted 8,000 to 10,000 years ago. |
