The area stretches from
2400 m a.s.l. to 3278 m a.s.l and is characterized by steep rockwalls,
talus cones, a glacier, several moraines of different ages
and multiple active and inactive rockglaciers. The geomorphic setting
has been investigated previously in Nyenhuis et al. (2005),
Rasemann (2003) and Roer (2005).
