Aiyo, all these moraines sound like different *sombar* pastes we spread for resist printing! Lateral is along the sides, medial is the line where two glaciers meet in the middle, and terminal is the pile at the end, telling how far it traveled. Honestly, I see them as the glacier's own block-printing stamps left on the earth.
But their history? My life says you learn more from the *muddle* than the map. Once, my appa spilled a whole vat of dye, and the chaotic stain on the floor told the true story of our hectic day better than our neat ledger. A glacier's messy, rocky leftovers probably hold its real, unpolished memories too.
