Maine Ice Age Trail map, app featured in Ellsworth American
The Ellsworth American reported on “Maine’s Ice Age Trail: Down East, Map and Guide,” which is available in print and as an iPhone app. The map was developed, in part, in 2006 by Hal Borns, professor emeritus of glacial and quaternary geology and founder of the University of Maine Climate Change Institute. The map shows how the Ice Age sculpted the Down East region into today’s mountains, cliffs, barrens, coastlines and lakes. It details about 50 locations between Ellsworth and Eastport where amateur geologists can find those features, according to the article.
