Figure 11a. Small-scale crag-and-tail features; tiny black dots near arrowhead in right center of photo are very small garnet crystals (crag) more resistant to erosion than the bedrock in which they occur, represented by the short tails on bedrock surface behind garnets (ice flow from upper right to lower left). Note fine striations above penny; these are the youngest striations at this pavement trending parallel to the crag-and-tail forms, 122-degrees.
