Description: The Missouri River in winter downstream from Yankton, South Dakota, with Nebraska below and South Dakota above. Bottom left is bluff Quaternary loess (soil deposited by wind) and other buried soil over over Cretaceous Niobrara Formation chalk and Carlile shale. All of this was under the far edge of the Wisconsin Ice Sheet, which departed around 50,000 years ago.
