Though there are many examples of eskers in the state, the Enfield Horseback, also known as the Passadumkeag Esker, is well-known around the world as a perfect example of glacial geology. Known for its perfect shape, this esker is also unique in that it shelters one of the largest wetlands in the state. Classified as both a bog and marsh, the wetland ecology in areas such as this is rare and protected from outside influence as much as possible to preserve the delicate species that naturally thrive here.
