Although difficult to imagine, portions of Ohio have been buried under ice and snow. Fairlawn and most of Summit County is on the edge of the Wisconsinan (14,000 to 24,000 years old), Illinoian (130,000 to 300,000 years old) and Pre-Illinoian (older than 300,000 years) glacier deposits. In fact, there are large deposits of sand, gravel and till – called Eskers and Kames – that provide the undulating hillsides of Sand Run Metroparks. These deposits are left by retreating glaciers.
Glacier’s Edge at Fairlawn Park pays homage to this wonderful, local, geological history.
