Some aspects of the deglaciation of the Indian House Lake area with particular reference to the former proglacial lakes.
The peninsule of Labrador-Ungava* (Map 1) is a population desert, having harsh, cold winters and brief, warrn, fly-cursed summers, but offering the glacial geomorphologist ample scope for working on virgin territory, with abundant landforrns often of textbook simplicity. However, it is only in recen...
