Medial moraines at Geikie

View from the flight station during our descent of an unnamed glacier on the southeast side of the Geikie peninsula.  Note the two medial moraines running down the center of the glacier.  Note also the horizontal stratigraphy in the canyon walls.  This is a distinctive geological feature of the Geikie area.
