(A) Find Enfield Horseback. what is this glacial fearure and how did it form?

(B) There are at least two other similar features. Name one of them and measure the average bearing of them
(including Enfield Horseback). What dlrection (in azimuth degrees) did the ice sheet flow in Maine?

Explanation / Answer

1. The Einfield Horseback is the terminal moraine of the bygone glacier. This is the maximum extent where the glacier has moved. This is formed when the sediments carved out by the glacier is deposited while retreating, it forms a ridge like pattern.

2.West End Cem is a similar feature. The bearing from the Enfield Horseback is roughly 450 (NE). The glacier has moved in south westerly direction (roughly 2250)
