DRISCOLL. (Burleigh County. ) 161. 0 miles. (215. 2 miles. ) Alti- tude, 1, 873 f eet - Hills of Altamont Moraine south of railroad approaching Driscoll. West the train glides swiftly down to a broad, level, marshy meadow. In 342 THE STORY OF THE PRAIRIES.
this valley lies a chain of lakes representing a large channel of glacial drainage which opens southwest into the valley of Apple Creek.
STERLING. 169. 6 miles. (206. 6 miles. ) Altitude, 1, 812 feet.
A deep cut is here made through the high ...crest of a ridge of the Altamont Moraine, the crest being eighty-two feet above the track, and the highest hill crossed by the railroad between Fargo and Bismarck. Many boulders, some of immense size, lie along the surface. Some of these knobs rise 200 feet above the prairie. Butte-like hills capped with the Fox Hills Sandstone can be seen in the distance. These are hills of erosion, and not drift hills. The last ridge of morainic hills, westward, has now been passed. At McKenzie a fine level hay-meadow is crossed, which belongs to the Apple Creek Valley glacial drainage system, lead- ing to the Missouri River.
