Abstract
Major glaciation in the Sierra Nevada of California resulted in the deposition of till which underlies latite 2.7 × 10 6 years old and overlies andesite 3.1 × 10 6 years old. This till, herein called the Deadman Pass till, is the oldest Pleistocene glacial deposit that has been found in temperate latitudes.Keywords
