Abstract

AbstractNeoglacial deposits in the Indian Peaks section of the Colorado Front Range have been dated lichenometrically by recourse to a growth-rate curve developed forRhizocarpon geographicumand three glacial fluctuations of the Temple Lake (4500–2700B.P.), “Arikaree” (1900–1000B.P.) and Gannett Peak (300–50B.P.) have been recognized and identified by Benedict (1968). Recent soil investigations on neoglacial deposits suggest the need to define an alternative type “Arikaree” in the Indian Peaks.
