The post to late glacial valley reconstruction on the Haramosh north side (Mani, Baska and Phuparash valleys)

Description :
The history of the landscape of the Haramosh valley is linked with the former glaciation history of the Indus Valley. The extent of the former glaciers Mani, Baska and Phuparash according to their glacio-geomorphic position, their snow line depression and relative age classification, using the method of Kuhle, is reported in this article. A high glacial ice filling of the Haramosh valley and glacial erosion of the flat top of the Darchan ridge as an intermediate valley head is strongly probable.
