GLACIMONTIS brings you reconstructions of mountain glaciers during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). Augusto Lima and @suzetteflantua.bsky.social from @unibergen.bsky.social and the Bjerknes Centre explain why reconstructing ancient glaciers matter. 🧪

That sr 18 ky BCE.

Here's an oblique view. I vaguely recall claims of moraine further east, at the damsite in the Spencers Creek valley, from the original Snowy Scheme geotech, but don't know veracity. Never seen a hint of anything glacial there.
