Till Outwash Soils

The outwash soils, separated by the low terrace, are distinguished from the tills by their relict braids. The young clay lodgement tills are characterized by the cloud-like gray tones and the darker, dendritic, shallow, "u"-shaped, gullies. These outwash materials are probably silty in nature as evidenced by the realtively equal fertility of the farming on both till and outwash. Scale of these features can be compared to the farm roads, which are one-half mile apart.
