WILKIN AND TRAVERSE COUNTIES, 1888. WARREN UPHAM. 



At the time of the McCauleyville beach the outflowing river Warren had a level 

 about the same as that of the present bed of lake Traverse. These beaches ascend 

 toward the north, the Herman beach at the rate of 125 feet in 142 miles, the lower 

 beaches at a less rate. This shows that the land toward the north has risen since 

 the beaches were formed. This lake was larger than lake Superior, and its surface 

 was 200 feet above the lake of the Woods and 700 feet above lake Winnipeg.
