Description :
From the distribution of the lateral and terminal moraines, indicating that even during the maximum glaciation the glaciers did not extend much longer than today, it was postulated that Mt. Meylixueshan then was not as high as today. The age of the oldest moraines was estimated to be about 50 000 yr B.P.
