  2. Lake Agassiz was formed about 11,000–12,000 years ago when a massive glacier blocked the drainage of the northern Great Plains into what is today Hudson Bay. As a result, the waters of the Saskatchewan and other rivers backed up, forming Lake Agassiz and the smaller lakes of Souris and Saskatchewan.

    Glaciers across North America began to retreat about 13,000 years ago, at the end of the last ice age. Melting ice pooled behind the northern edge of the glaciers, forming a lake. At its peak, Lake Agassiz covered an area larger than all of the modern Great Lakes combined. Over the centuries, its size varied by a great deal.

    As the ice retreated for the last time, around 10,000-12,000 thousand years ago, an ice dam was formed. The remains of the Laurentide Ice Sheet obstructed the drainage of the continent northward into the Hudson Bay, forming a massive reserve of meltwater called Lake Agassiz (a-guh-see).
