During the last 60 million years the sediments were compacted and folded by mountain building forces from continental drift to form strata of siltstone, sandstone, conglomerate and coal. During recent geologic history, the Chuckanut formation was overridden by four or more glaciations.<sup id="cite_ref-25" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-25"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>25<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Point Roberts consists of a series of the resulting glacial sediments resting upon the Chuckanut Formation. The lowest glacial sediments (now near sea level) are from Salmon Springs or older glaciations. At the peak of the most recent glaciation, the main ice sheet was in excess of 7,000 feet (2,100 m) thick as it moved southward between Vancouver Island and the Canadian Coast Range and down the Strait of Georgia. A smaller lobe of the continental glacier in excess of 5,000 feet (1,500 m) traveled down the Fraser River flood plains merging with the main ice sheet over the greater Vancouver area and Whatcom and Skagit Counties. The coalesced continental ice sheet traveled south terminating in the vicinity of <a href="/wiki/Chehalis,_Washington" title="Chehalis, Washington">Chehalis, Washington</a>. Relatively impermeable Vashon glacial lodgment till (estimated to be as much as 40 feet (12 m) thick at the uppermost layer) was plastered over the advance outwash as the weight of the 7,000-foot (2,100 m) thick plus Strait of Georgia ice lobe moved southward over approximately 10,000 years. (Armstrong, et al., 1965) Point Roberts, Tsawwassen, and part of British Columbia extending past English Bluff comprised an island at the close of the <a href="/wiki/Vashon_Glaciation" title="Vashon Glaciation">Vashon Glaciation</a>, approximately 11,000 years ago. </p><p>As the ice sheets melted, the thinner Fraser Lobe began to float while the Strait of Georgia lobe acted as a dam forming a lake under the Fraser Lobe. Sediments settling from the melting, floating ice resulted in the accumulation of 300 feet (91 m) or more of <a href="/wiki/Glacial_drift" class="mw-redirect" title="Glacial drift">glacial marine drift</a> over much of western Whatcom County. (Easterbrook, 1976; Geologic Map of Western Whatcom County, Washington, USGS, Map I-854-B) This glacial marine drift is generally soft and was not consolidated by the weight of the glacier. A discontinuous, thin mantle of this glacial marine drift above the <a href="/wiki/Glacial_till" class="mw-redirect" title="Glacial till">glacial lodgement till</a> has been identified sporadically across Point Roberts. The uppermost layer of glacial sediments consists of <a href="/wiki/Recessional_moraine" class="mw-redirect" title="Recessional moraine">recessional</a> sand, silt, and gravel deposited as the Strait of Georgia ice lobe receded. Since the recession of the glaciers, the Fraser River has deposited <a href="/wiki/River_delta" title="River delta">deltaic</a> sediments on the north and easterly side of the Point Roberts-Tsawwassen Island, connecting it to the Greater Vancouver mainland (approximately 2,500 years ago, Murray 2008). At some locations, these sediments have been eroded or removed, exposing the lodgement till. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Parks_and_features">Parks and features</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Point_Roberts,_Washington&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Parks and features"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:North_from_maple_beach.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/82/North_from_maple_beach.jpg/220px-North_from_maple_beach.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/82/North_from_maple_beach.jpg/330px-North_from_maple_beach.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/82/North_from_maple_beach.jpg/440px-North_from_maple_beach.jpg 2x" data-file-width="3072" data-file-height="2048" /></a><figcaption>Looking north on a clear summer day from Maple Beach</figcaption></figure> <ul><li>Maple Beach (NE)      </li> <li>Monument Park (NW)</li> <li>Lighthouse Marine Park (SW)</li> <li>Point Roberts Skate Park (Central - recreational open space)</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Lily_Point_Marine_Reserve" title="Lily Point Marine Reserve">Lily Point Marine Reserve</a> (SE)</li> <li>Cascadia Marine Trail (S and E)</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Neighborhoods">Neighborhoods</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Point_Roberts,_Washington&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Neighborhoods"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li>South Beach Estates (beach rights)</li> <li>Bells Grove</li> <li>Crystal Waters</li> <li>Freeman Beach</li> <li>Lily Point</li> <li>Maple Beach</li> <li>Waters Plat</li> <li>Ocean View Estates</li> <li>Seabright Farm Cottages</li> <li>Cedar Heights</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Climate">Climate</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Point_Roberts,_Washington&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Climate"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Despite its proximity to 49 °N latitude, Point Roberts has an <a href="/wiki/Oceanic_climate" title="Oceanic climate">Oceanic climate</a> (<a href="/wiki/K%C3%B6ppen_climate_classification" title="Köppen climate classification">Köppen</a>: <i>Cfb</i>) although winters may be colder for this climatic subtype, similar to the <a href="/wiki/Vancouver" title="Vancouver">Vancouver</a>-<a href="/wiki/Seattle" title="Seattle">Seattle</a>-<a href="/wiki/Portland,_Oregon" title="Portland, Oregon">Portland</a> axis.<sup id="cite_ref-26" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-26"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>26<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Point Roberts lies within a <a href="/wiki/Depression_(geology)" title="Depression (geology)">depression</a> created by <a href="/wiki/Vancouver_Island" title="Vancouver Island">Vancouver Island</a>, the north shore mountains surrounding <a href="/wiki/Vancouver" title="Vancouver">Vancouver</a>, and the North Cascades (including <a href="/wiki/Mount_Baker" title="Mount Baker">Mount Baker</a>).
