Summary edit

Description
English: College Farm Pingo Pingos were originally low hillocks which were formed around 20,000 years ago during the last ice age when water beneath the surface froze, pushing the soil up. During the summer thaw, the soil on the surface would sludge off and accumulate round the edges. When the ice finally melted, the hillocks collapsed leaving the shallow craters we see today.
