Wetland Mixedwood Subregion

Wetland Rolling HillsThe topography of the Wetland Mixedwood Subregion is generally subdued and, for the most part, level with a few areas of gently rolling hills.  Elevations in this Subregion range from about 280 to 450 metres and surficial materials are predominantly glaciolacustrine overlain by extensive organic and till deposits.  Limited areas of glaciofluvial and Aeolian sandy deposits also occur.
