The formation, deposited between 50,000 and 10,000 years ago, contains remains of bison, muskoxen, mammoths, and other animals embedded in an ice cliff that is long and high. Odors emitted by the warming animal carcasses have led to the site's nickname, the ''Stinking Hills'' or ''Stinky Bluffs''. ==See also== *List of rivers of Alaska 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Itkillik River」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
