Left: tongue of Glacier de Tsanfleuron; centre: fluted lateral moraine from the Little Ice Age; upper right: Sanetschhorn or Mont Brun. | View towards and under the glacier margin which is disected by small longitudinal crevasses. | Similar view as in the previous photo but somewhat further away from the ice margin. |
Tongue of Glacier de Tsanfleuron and Sanetschhorn or Mont Brun. Small lake between roches moutonnées. | Spectacular striae in front of the glacier and yellow calcium carbonate precipitates. | Small scalloped shapes caused by turbulent water flow beneath the ice. |
Similar phenomena as in the previous image. The scalloped depressions form on the slopes facing downglacier. | Erosion by ice and water: roches moutonnées, striae and meltwater channels. | |
