Steigletscher

Repeat photos from the road to Sustenpass towards the terminus, from the NE: 1981, 1983, 1987, 1991, 2003 und 2010 (from top left to bottom right). During the advance the convex tongue made a small but still rather prominent push moraine. From about 1988 to 1994 the central part of the glacier terminus was in contact with Steisee. During this time the push moraine was almost totally destroyed. Then strong recession set in. Note smaller scale of last photo.
