Figure 3. Surficial glacial deposits in Illinois

Figure 3. Surficial glacial deposits in Illinois: glacial till deposits in green; sand-and-gravel deposits in yellow-orange; and silt and clay deposits in blue. Darker shades indicate thicker deposits and can be used to trace ancient buried valleys that are filled with complex glacial deposits across the central part of the State.
