However, common to all valleys is the large glaciation most probably in the Gschnitz-stage, in which the glaciers reached particularly low locations due to special favourable aspects such as north-exposure, steep and narrow gorges, high shading and considerable snow accumulation. This is also valid for the sidebranches of the Slovenian Koritnica valley which are again directedwest-east. Still younger glacier stages could be found in the upper sections of the Dogna, Raccolana and Bala valley. For the moraines of very low altitudes in the Resia valley, at the entrance to Možnica and the upper Raccolana valley pollen analyses are available. All considerations in the paper are estimations based on geomorphological and climatological experienceTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaZRC SAZU
