Oh my God. Yes. Let's see. Um, Yeah, we can actually, and you can follow that. It loops up to the northwest. You can follow it right on up. It's just obvious. You can see that was a giant meltwater sluiceway, and then you get up there to the lakes. If you keep going, there will be Big Stone Lake. Big Stone Lake was the the out, the out, yeah, Ortonville there. That's right in there.

So this was just below the outburst of this great meltwater lake. And like I said, big stone lake is a hint of, because there's a bunch of really big stones laying there in the pathway that got rolled and tumbled in this. I mean, we're talking about a major catastrophic outburst flood here. And, uh,

There was no, there was, you know, there was a few points where, like this, I cite this example, but, you know, I grew up in this landscape that was right on the edge of what is called the superior lobe of the Laurentide Ice Sheet.

So where I lived, we had property on a lake, and it was basically a leftover meltwater puddle. And when you look at the landscape, you might see a fairly level field that a farmer has. And then right in the middle of it, you got this steep mound. And I would look like, why is that hill right there? Well, it turns out that that was probably called a cane, which is...
