Littleton is an area with a rich history of colonization, though it is mainly known for its agricultural land. With rich rolling fields, the Littleton Esker sticks out as an odd geographical feature. As a remnant of glaciers long past, these large mounds were the underbellies of the great ice sheets, piled together over millions of years in deposits, only to be left when the ice melted. Today, these geological sites provide beautiful views of the surrounding landscape.
