Probably the most complete description of the impact of the glaciers in Chippewa County can now be easily found in free publications by Kent Syverson, professor of geology at UW-Eau Claire. The bulletin, Pleistocene Geology of Chippewa County, Wisconsin (2007), goes in depth into glacial activity and resulting landforms.

Be sure to also download the companion map and cross-section diagram that accompany the bulletin. Together, the publications will help you understand how a glacial geologist gathers and interprets data in order to understand the geologic history "puzzle."

The downloadable PDFs are available online from the Wisconsin Geological and Natural History Survey [WGNHS]. Go to https://wgnhs.wisc.edu/catalog/publication/000127 to select and download the publications.

The WGNHS website has a wealth of more general or state-wide publications about glacial history, along with in-depth bulletins for many other counties.
