Surficial Geology Lines (1:20-25k)

This GIS dataset is a Yukon-wide compilation of surficial geology lines derived from 15 published and unpublished 1:20,000 and 1:25,000 scale surficial geology maps produced by the YGS and City of Whitehorse. Surficial geology line features captured in this compilation include: surficial geological contacts; glacial limits; glacial landforms such as cirques, aretes, eskers, meltwater channels and moraines; and non-glacial landforms such as faults, lineaments, landslides, and escarpments.
