The Strand Moraines
The Strand Moraines is an ancient lateral moraine of the Koettlitz Glacier, deposited at the outer edge of Bowers Piedmont Glacier on the west shore of McMurdo Sound, in Victoria Land. Discovered by the Discovery expedition (1901–04) and first called "The Eskers." The feature was renamed by Scott in keeping with its true nature.
