Ancient River Found Flowing Beneath Toronto

from Yahoo! News – Ancient River Found Flowing Beneath Toronto via Boing Boing!

There’s an ice-age river flowing deep under Canada’s largest city. There has been for at least a million years but it wasn’t until last month that anyone saw any real evidence of it.

The discovery of the glacial river happened when workers were trying to cap two artesian wells, part of a stormwater runoff project in High Park, one of the city’s largest parks, near the shore of Lake Ontario.

Okay, I’m getting my shovel and starting to dig in the back yard!
