This project will design and produce 200,000 copies of an Ice Age Trail map that interprets for informal learners (tourist travelers, local residents, school students) the late Quaternary history of eastern coastal Maine, glaciated North America and the north Atlantic region. The map will lead geo/eco-travelers along public roads to critical stops where they can observe glacial, glaciomarine and vegetation features, as well as historical and human events described and interpreted on the map in photos, diagrams and text. The travelers will be drawn from the approximately 4 million visitors to Maine's coastal state and national parks. Additional dissemination will be via web cast through at least five separate websites.

该项目将设计并制作20万份冰河时代足迹地图，为非正式学习者（游客、当地居民、学生）解释缅因州东部沿海、冰川覆盖的北美和北大西洋地区的晚第四纪历史。该地图将引导地理/生态旅行者沿着公共道路到达关键站点，在那里他们可以观察冰川、冰川海洋和植被特征，以及地图上以照片、图表和文字描述和解释的历史和人类事件。这些游客将从大约400万前往缅因州沿海州立公园和国家公园的游客中挑选出来。另外的传播将通过至少五个独立的网站进行网络直播。
