Walton (population: 96) is a Southwestern Ontario hamlet in the municipality of Morris-Turnberry, in Huron County, Ontario, Canada, located at the intersection of Huron County Road 12 and Road 25, 45 km east of Goderich. ==Geography== The geography of the region was shaped by the Wisconsin Glacial Episode. This was the last major advance of continental glaciers in the North American Laurentide ice sheet. According to the Atlas of Canada the moraine ridge to the east and north of Walton is remaining evidence and is the head of the South Maitland River. It is probable the area was first occupied by Paleo-Indians almost as soon as the land was exposed by melting ice around 11,000 and 10,500 years ago, based on regional archaeological evidence. The Saugeen Complex was a Native American culture of one of the first indigenous settlements of the region. The general climate is determined by a combination of the prevailing westerly wind and proximity to the Great Lakes, referred to as lake effect . This is particularly evident during winter months as part of the snowbelt on the lee of Lake Huron 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「Walton, Ontario」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
