AbstractField study of the bergschrund of a small avalanche-cone glacier at the base of Mt Chephren, in Banff National Park, has been carried out as part of a general exploratory study of glacier-head crevasses in the Canadian Rockies. The bergschrund consists of a wide, shallow, partly bedrock-floored gap, underneath which extends a nearly verticalRandkluft, and a small, offset, subsidiary crevasse (or crevasses). The following observations regarding the behavior of the bergschrund and ice adjacent to it are of particular interest: (1) topography of the subglacial bedrock is a control on the location of the main bergschrund and subsidiary crevasses, (2) the main bergschrund and subsidiary crevasse(s) are connected by subglacial gaps between bedrock and ice; the gaps are part of the “bergschrund system”, (3) snow/ice immediately down-glacier of the bergschrund system moves nearly vertically downward in response to rotational flow of the glacier, allowing the bergschrund components to keep the same location and size from year to year, (4) an independent accumulation, flow, and ablation system exists in the snow/ice up-glacier of the bergschrund system. (5) most of the void space in the bergschrund system is maintained through the winter, although the wide, shallow part of the main bergschrund fills up with snow, (6) some mass transfer of snow/ice occurs across the bergschrund system, (7) displacement across the bergschrund due to flow of the main glacier body results in significantly more snow being deposited each winter down-glacier of the bergschrund than up-glacier of it.
