Fig. 5, Looking north through Skaneateles Inlet valley; camera stands near 
mouth of overflow channel. Small portion of lake shows in middle of picture; the 
heavily wooded slope paralleling eastern shore marks the upper limit of more vigor-

Wisconsin waters. This gorge continues westward into the Genoa 
quadrangle. 
In the discussion of post-Wisconsin carving it is apparent that 
no sharp distinction has been made between the work of immed- 
iately ice-front waters and the erosion-work of more recent streams. 
In all caseSj except the downhill gorges associated with the glac- 
ially steepened valley wallsj and the channels connected with the 
Skaneateles InleL both factors probably enter somewhat into the 
gorge-cutting. The Skaneateles Inlet channeb however^ is purely 
the work of an ice-front stream. 
PRESENT POSITION IN DRAINAGE CYCLE. 
Aside from a few post-glacial streams now in rock there is very 
little degradational work being done at the present time in the 
area of this quadrangle. Streams of this type have a local base- 
level due either to glacial overdeepening of the main drainage
