Mass Movement Processes in Metalline Creek, Southwest Yukon Territory

In Metalline Creek, a small valley in the Kluane Range of the southwest Yukon Territory, the glacial deposits and the talus material have been affected by mass movement processes promoted by the occurrence of glacier ice and ice formed from avalanche snow. In addition, minor periglacial mass movement processes occur in the valley. Variations in the type of process are attributed to altitudinal changes, to aspect, and to change in the height of the regional snow line during the Neoglacial period
