Join geologist Ray Wiggers as he explores how Illinois went from forbidding ice desert to our current landscape, soils, and plant communities.

Geologist Ray Wiggers explores how Illinois’ living landscape came to be!

Twenty thousand years ago, the Upper Midwest was a forbidding ice desert.

This talk explores how, at the end of that glaciation, the Prairie State’s landscapes, soils, and plant communities evolved into their present forms.

An overview of significant pre-Ice Age events is also included.
