Figure 14. Photo showing at least two ice-flow directions (shown by yellow lines). The water-filled feature is a crescentic gouge. It was formed where a boulder at the base of the glacier gouged the bedrock surface and indicates a unique ice flow direction toward the viewer (to the south-east). Chatter marks were formed in a similar way.
