Wolfgangsee

At the culmination of the Würm glacial period, 20,000 years ago, extensive areas of the Salzkammergut region were covered by thick ice-masses of the Traun glacier. Coming from the Dachstein massif the ice slowly flowed northwards. The Wolfgangsee branch glacier flowed from Bad Ischl to St. Gilgen and farther to Fuschl and Hof. The Thalgau branch flowed across Scharfling pass to Mondsee and Thalgau, where it joined the Salzach glacier. The Alpine pastures mainly were covered by ice, only the summits projected.

Flowing slowly the glacier scoured out the 200 m deep basin of Wolfgangsee lake. Rock fragments were dragged along the base of the glacier. Tough rocks as limestone, comgolmerate and quartzite were rounded and scratched. Such drifts are frequent components of moraines. Little resistant rocks as marl and shale were ground to silt and clay, which form the loamy matter of moraines.

18,000 years ago a rise in temperature caused the rapid disintegration of the ice-stream. The basin of Wolfgangsee lake remained filled with an isolated ice-block for a while. Brooks deposited gravel and sand on the ice-edge forming terraces. When the ice-block melted, the basin was filled with water and so today's Wolfgangsee lake was formed.

Please answer the following questions and send them over my profile to me. If your answers are correct, I will give you the permit to log. Log entries without prior message will be deleted!

1. Name three mountains which rose out of the ice at the culmination of the Würm glacial period. 

2. Which altitude had the surface of the glacier in the region of St. Gilgen?

3. Which five lakes (in addition to Wolfgangsee lake) were formed through the Traun glacier?

4. In the picture above you see that the middle of the Wolfgangsee lake is very narrow. How was it formed?

Please include a picture of you and/or your GPS device in the surrounding area.

Ein schöner Platz. Die Aussicht ist toll. Fast ein drive-in, nur die letzten paar Meter ist Fahrverbot.

Danke für den Cache

Eine schöne Wanderung führte mich heute auf das Zwölferhorn.Nach ich hier am Gipfel mich satt gesehen hatte lief ich weiter auf dem Panoramaweg zu diesem Cache.An den Koordinaten angekommen fand ich die Tafel und studierte sie.Die Antworten zu finden war nicht schwer und bald erledigt.Dann erklomm ich noch den kleinen Gipfel in der Nähe.

Danke für den Cache.
