Glaciers and Lakes in the Lamoille River Valley

 

While it might be difficult to imagine that 25,000 years ago Vermont was covered by a mile thick glacier, evidence of the glacier's rise and fall have had a significant influence on the shape and ecology of our landscape. Come listen to Stephen Wright discuss the glaciers and lakes of our region.

 

Stephen Wright is a recently retired Senior Lecturer in the Geology Department at the University of Vermont (now the Department of Geography and Geoscience). While his background includes experience with a wide variety of geological phenomena, he has worked most extensively studying the glacial history of northern Vermont. He and his student interns are currently working in the Newport area.
