Himalaya. Here, the seasonal changes are large and, since the glacier snout remained snow-free for much of the winter, it was relatively easy to identify change in terminal activity. The observations made are presented here in the hope of meeting a little of the need for information on the seasonal behaviour of ice fronts. The Biafo also has extensive and well-preserved frontal deposits dating from the last few hundred years. These and the activity of the present ice front will be used to suggest the relationship between the seasonally varying release and shaping of
