Across
- 1. a small mountain lake set in a glaciated steep walled amphitheatre known as a cirque
- 5. a process of erosion where individual rocks are plucked from the valley floor or sides as water freezes them to the glacier
- 7. a glacier sliding over the bed before it due to melt water under the ice acting as a lubricant
- 8. outputs from the glacier budget, such as melting
- 9. a sharp edged mountain peak
- 10. a stream or river that is either too large or too small to have eroded the valley in which it flows
- 12. a tributary glacier trough perched up on the side of a main valley, often marked by a waterfall
- 14. a deep depression on a hillside with a steep back wall often containing a lake
- 15. a knife edge ridge, often formed between two corries
Down
- 2. a process of erosion involving the wearing away of the valley floor and side son a glacier
- 3. glacier transported rock fragment that differs from the local bedrock
- 4. an egg shaped hill found on the floor of a glacial trough
- 6. a wide, steep sided valley eroded by a glacier
- 10. sediment carried and deposited by the ice
- 11. deposits of angular rock fragments found at the foot of rock outcrops
- 13. a finger of ice usually extending downhill from an ice cap and occupying a valley
