Evolution of a landscape: Mapping the surface we live on (Byte-Sized Science)

Geologists from Natural Resources Canada head to northern Labrador to map the surficial geology impacted by the last ice age. Join Roger Paulen, Pierre-Marc Godbout and Jessey Rice as they use their detective skills to map the former paths of these once great ice sheets.
