Previously unrecognized glacial erosional landforms (i.e. cirques, u-shaped troughs, truncated spurs and arêtes, in order of increasing doubt), and glacial depositional landforms (i.e. end moraine and possibly ground moraine) occur in the Fifty Mile Creek area, west of the pre-Reid Cordilleran glacial limit. The cirques and end moraine, representing the best evidence of glaciation, are similar to landforms in the adjacent Yukon-Tanana uplands of Alaska and formed during the Eagle glaciation (>40 ka, or Reid in age). Glaciation caused climate-controlled variations in runoff and cycles of aggradation and incision in the Fifty Mile Creek drainage. This resulted in the formation of upper- and lower-level terraces along Fifty Mile Creek and its tributaries. The terraces are composed of slightly muddy, sandy gravel of locally derived lithologies, and are fluvial in origin. Placer gold occurs along Fifty Mile Creek and several of its tributaries, as well as in the lower-level terraces. The upper-level terraces are potentially placer-gold bearing.
