Saugeen Kame Terraces

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Saugeen Kame Terraces is a 431 hectare provincially-significant Earth Science Area of Natural and Scientific Interest in Ontario, Canada.[1] It is in Grey County (in what was once Egremont Township), bounding the eastern and southern shores of Wilder Lake, a kettle lake, and is part of the larger Singhampton Kame Moraine formation. It is the result of glacial retreat sediment deposition about 14,000 years ago.
