Erosion Studies   -  
Alpine Grandeur Zone

   

Because of height, the speed of alpine uplifting, several glaciers and violent weather, erosion processes here are particularly exciting.  We see the screes, frost heave and frost shatter.

Studies
It is easy to
understand the different stages of these processes when we see with KANES millions of tones of rock sliding from the mountains and sent travelling across deposition plains to the oceans.
