Description :
This study aims to establish the timing of strath formation and review the mechanisms for terrace formation in rivers that drain Wyoming's Laramie Range. They provide evidence for terrace formation in a river that was distally glaciated, and one that was not directly impacted by late Pleistocene glaciation.
