Description :
This paper deals with cryogenic palaeoenvironmental indicators, ice wedge casts, located at 34o 37' S, 68o 26' W, 825 m a. s. l., 80 km east of the Andes. The interpretation of these ice-wedge casts is based on analysis of fabric diagrams of the natural deposits, the infilling material, sag material and the past active layer.
