Description :
Langtalkar rock glacier represents a closed complex system of debris transportation within a sharply limited cirque in which an estimation of age is possible with the help of the remnants of Late Glacial and Holocene glaciers. The aim of this article is to trace the Holocene development of the entire mass transportation system by using data from photogrammetry and geodetic survey sampled in the last decade as well as results from recent measurements.
