Abstract

The morphologic structure of alpinotype mountains is described. The nivation processes and foremost avalanches are the main factors of summit belt and slope belt formation. The role of glacial activity in the alpine morphogenesis is commonly exaggerated; the alpine landscapes continue their morphologic maturity and do not transfer into relics even after deglaciation.
