- moraine
- landforms composed of unsorted materials deposited by glaciers They can cover broad geographic areas of millions of acres Topography can vary from nearly level "till" plains to rough end moraine landscapes composed of steep dry ridges interspersed with deep kettle holes These glacial "kettles" are frequent locations for lakes and wetlands
