The Range both to the north and south of this region was, perhaps, glaciated about as heavily, but because the rocks are less resisting, their polished surfaces have mostly given way to the weather, leaving only small imperfect patches.

该地区北部和南部山脉也许经历过同样严重冰川作用， 但由于岩石抵抗力较弱， 它们抛光表面大多已被天气所取代， 只留不完美小块。
