| Late this afternoon, I followed a dry esker, dropped down the ridge and walked right beside a bear den. |
|
| A second higher valley runs parallel to the saddle valley immediately east of a low ridge and esker. |
|
| Locally, thin sheets of gravel may extend the esker aquifer laterally to include aquifers at the contact between sediment and bedrock. |
|
| Ice-contact and glaciofluvial deposits are tens of metres thick and are contained in five north-trending esker ridges. |
|
| Known denning areas should be avoided when planning development on or near an esker. |
|
| Visitors can also retrace the steps of Samuel Hearne by climbing the esker that was his vantage point on Shethanei Lake. |
|
| This valley was followed from Thonokied Lake to Lac de Gras and the heightof-land was observed where the esker cuts across the valley. |
|
| Another unusual ice-contact feature is an esker, a long, narrow, steep-sided ridge of glaciofluvial sand and gravel inhabiting a glaciated area. |
|
| Attention is drawn to the dependence of esker formation upon the subglacial surface and glacier hydrology. |
|
| This younger flow is oblique to the Copperneedle esker located less than 2 km from this site and reflects lateral movement of ice toward the esker ridge during deglaciation. |
|
| When the lake rests against an esker, water pressure increases with the increases depth. |
|
| The esker may then fail under the load and burst, creating a new outflow. |
|
| With 14 goals and 7 assists, Esker ranked among the scoring leaders in the Dual Valley Conference and helped the Warriors to the Central Mass. |
