Maine's geological history began over 650 million years ago, with periods of marine sedimentation, followed by mountain-building, to give us the rocky ledge that underlies everything.Over the last million years, Maine has several times been covered by a mile of ice. It gouged the rock, grinding it into gravel, sand, silt and clay to give us our wide variety of soils.
