Stop #8, Ice Contact Face and View

Image

Once you arrive at the top of the ice contact face, pictured here, take a moment and have a seat on the nearby park bench to enjoy the spectacular view of the Haynes Basin. Visit us again another time of year if your view is partially obstructed by foliage.

On the opposite shore to the east ahead of you one can see the kame terrace. The dam is at right and eskers can be seen to the east southeast.  Behind you is a depression that is called a kettle.

More about kettles at stop #9, which is about 300 yds. ahead.
