Text Description: The tephra occurs in cryogenically deformed, late-Pleistocene fluvial deposits located below the glaciolacustrine silt and clay that form a conspicuous, dark, recessive unit close to the top of the bluff. Tephra has reworked thickness of 5 to 10 cm and occurs within fine-grained, peaty floodplain deposits. Tephra continuity is disrupted by large ice-wedge casts whose infilling commonly contains small pockets of the tephra (See Figs. 4B and 5 in Westgate and others, 1983). Channel gravel and sand underlie the tephra-bearing sediments and these in turn unconformably overlie fluvial and lacustrine sediments of probable middle or early Pleistocene age (Pearce and others, 1982).
