Leaving the rest of their party behind, they inched their way past the glacier that clung to a nearly vertical face, completed their quest and were back at their camp in a little more than 24 hours.

Elite training of Cliff Leaders in the late 1950s required rocky landings from various small craft ( kayaks, Zodiacs and other motorized assault craft ) often in heavy seas onto the Cornish coast, and rapid tactical ascents and descent of the vertical faces.

"' Turbulence Bluffs "'( ) is a three high bluffs with vertical faces on the northwest but merging with the ice sheet on the southeast, standing along the east side of Robert Glacier 16 nautical miles ( 30 km ) northeast of Rayner Peak in Enderby Land.

Frothing ( akin to beating egg whites making a meringue ), is also used to stabilize foamed liquid reactants, e . g . to prevent slumping occurring on vertical walls before cure ( i . e . avoiding foam collapse and sliding down a vertical face due to gravity ).

The range is an intermittently broken by river valleys, variable width escarpment with a steep southern slope, often quarried away into vertical faces, it includes Botley Hill and Box Hill and this ridge is one of the two mentioned ranges of hills which form in the western half the Surrey Hills AONB.

Since the gnomon's style must be parallel to the Earth's axis, it always " points " true North and its angle with the horizontal will equal the sundial's geographical latitude; on a direct south dial, its angle with the vertical face of the dial will equal the colatitude, or 90?minus the latitude.

Although air temperatures at that elevation are always below freezing, solar radiation causes melting on their vertical faces . " There is no pathway for the plateau glaciers other than to continuously retreat once their vertical margins are exposed to solar radiation . " Vertical ice margin walls are a unique characteristic of the summit glaciers and a major place of the shrinkage of the glaciers.
