This one looks good to me, can you take a look @cvavrus

[cvavrus]

most of the geologic age column of the map units say 'Wisconsin', is this meant to be 'Wisconsinan'?

[aazaff]

I believe that is correct. @ericjohannes can you confirm?

[ericjohannes]

@cvavrus @aazaff Yes they are the same. I just checked with a geologist.

Great thanks!
