[2] The name alludes to the reddish clay that is the predominant local soil along its route. [3] The river is commonly muddy after rains.
Since glacial till is highly fertile soil, agriculture on the glacial till plains is very productive. The region has gently rolling moraine hills left over from the retreating glaciers, as well as small sandy ridges , which were formed as coastal dunes during periods in which Lake Erie was higher than it is today (14,000-12,000 years ago).
