Title: Boston, MA and New England Coastline
Description:
Boston, MA and the New England Coastline (43.5N, 84.0W) can be seen in this 
view.  The typical rugged rocky coast of Maine is the result of heavy
glacial  action producing the rocky cliffs, jagged spurs of land and
islands that  characterize Main's Atlantic Coast.  During the last Ice Age,
extensive  sediments were laid down producing a landscape of rolling hills
with rocky  outcrops.
