Traces of the 1820 (?) morainic loop on the floor of the Kaldalon Valley. These are in the form of low elongated ridges and hummocks, quite subtle but nonetheless noticeable when one walks along on the valley floor towards the glacier. The kame terrace remnants on the valley side above must be unrelated. They may be related to the 1780 surge for which no terminal moraine is known (it may have been buried beneath the accumulating sandur).
