An incredible wilderness adventure and bucket list destination!
Exploring the Eskers
The North Seal River area is home to unique geographical formations- Sand eskers. Eskers are large continuous sand dunes that run continuously, some rising 200-400’ above the neighboring landscape and many stretching over 25-50 miles and many even longer. They were formed by the run-off from the rivers underneath the last glaciers 8,000 years ago. There are 13 major eskers in the region surrounding Egenolf Lake, the largest concentration of eskers in North America. Amongst these is the Robertson Esker, one of the most famous and at more than 180 miles (approximately 300 km), one of the longest in the world. The unique topography of the Eskers creates a habitat for plants, animals, and geological features unlike any other. Their beauty and peaceful surroundings are indescribable.
Providing unique habitats
The eskers are loaded with history, having been used as migration routes by Barren-ground caribou and other wildlife for thousands of years. Archeological artifacts, commonly found on the eskers, indicate that ancient indigenous peoples used them as key travel and hunting routes since the glaciers left the region approximately 8,000 years ago. Eskers intersect all of the lakes Ganglers destinations are based on. Whether on a guided tour or a leisurely hike, you will marvel at their beauty which creates the unique North Seal habitat.
When you desire a break from Gangler’s incredible angling, we invite you to explore and learn about the incredible sand eskers of this region.
