Moraines are glacially deposited ridges of debris that accumulate at the sides or terminus of a glacier. Lateral moraines form at the sides of glaciers and terminal moraines at the terminus of a glacier. Terminal moraines mark the maximum advance of a glacier. Moraines are made up of glacial debris ranging in size from enormous boulders to fine glacial flour. Boulders and rocks in moraines are generally rounded due to the churning and grinding within the glacier as it moved.
