The following questions are based on map t-11, the “whitewater, wisconsin” quadrangle (scale 1: 62,500; contour interval 20 feet; dotted lines represent 10-foot contours). the irregular high ground of “kettle moraine state forest,” running diagonally from the lower left to the right center of the map, is a terminal moraine left by a pleistocene ice sheet (42°51′34″n, 88°35′59″w). the region northwest of the terminal moraine was once covered by the ice. the region in the southeast corner of the map is the edge of the glacial outwash plain. visualize a general topographic profile across this landscape, from upper left corner to the lower right corner of the map, by determining the elevations of the following locations 1. mcclery cemetery: a) 1,000 ft b) 1,250 ft c) 860 ft d) 950 ft 2. pumping stations near scuppernong: a) 25 ft b) 780 ft c) 1,500 ft d) 120 ft 3. blue spring lake: a) 48 ft b) 110 ft c) 950 ft d) 812 ft 4. crest of the terminal moraine about 0.5 mile (0.8 km) south of blue spring lake: a) 1,698 ft b) 2.547 ft c) 1,480 ft d) 1,042 ft 5. round prairie cemetery: a) 180 ft b) 1,865 ft c) 990 ft d) 1,456 ft 6. estimate the minimum thickness of the ice at the terminal moraine in the area of blue spring lake. assume that the ice extended up at least to the highest point on the moraine. (determine the thickness of the ice, not its elevation.) a) about 200 ft b) about 250 ft c) about 350 ft d) about 300 ft 7. suggest one reason why the elevation of the outwash plain in the southeast is higher than the ground that was below the ice, northwest of the terminal moraine. a) deposition off the margin of the glacier b) esker formation 8. briefly describe the current extent of drainage system development around the terminal moraine and in the glacial outwash plain to the southeast. a) parallel, excellent drainage b) deranged, poor drainage
