Reconnaissance surficial geology, Nose Lake, Nunavut-Northwest Territories, NTS 76-F / author: D.E. Kerr.: M183-1/446-2022E-PDF

"The oldest regional ice flow in the Nose Lake map area is southwestward. Subsequent northwestward flow is inferred from streamlined bedrock in central and eastern regions. The final and youngest flow was southwestward in these same regions, recorded by an abundance of streamlined landforms in till blanket and bedrock. The western edge of this late active ice lobe is defined by recessional moraines, part of the Twin Jugs moraine, also marking the eastern limit of a broad band of hummocky till from downwasting ice"--Abstract.
