Description: Thousands of years ago, an ice age began. Year by year, century by century, the snow fell and grew deeper, compacting the lower layers into ice. Tremendous pressures caused the ice, over two miles thick in places, to inch its way forward. In vast sheets, the ice advanced through low lying river areas and lake basins, fanning outward in finger like projections, gouging and carving the landscape, burying a continent under a barren wasteland of ice and snow. This ancient scenario sets the story of glaciation, its effects on the features of North America, and man's adaptation to the landforms.-
