| 1. | Another feature of the glacier is a moulin, and a bergschrund.
|
| 2. | Unlike a randkluft, a bergschrund has two ice walls.
|
| 3. | However, the randkluft is sometimes called a bergschrund.
|
| 4. | Moving glacier ice can sometimes separate from stagnant ice above, forming a bergschrund.
|
| 5. | In winter, a bergschrund is often filled by snow from avalanches from the mountain above it.
|
| 6. | A bergschrund forms when the movement of the glacier separates the moving ice from the stationary ice forming a crevasse.
|
| 7. | In a corrie or cirque, the bergschrund is positioned at the rear, parallel to the back wall of the corrie.
|
| 8. | From the bergschrund at the foot of the Southwest Face, the mountain slopes up at a steady angle of about 45?
|
| 9. | Water that flows into the bergschrund can be cooled to freezing temperatures by the surrounding ice allowing freeze-thaw mechanisms to occur.
|
| 10. | In a longitudinal glacier, the bergschrund is at the top end of the glacier at a right angle to the flow of the glacier.
