Erosional Remnants in the Båldakatj Area, Lapland, Northern Sweden

Late Glacial Hydrology of the Upper Pite River Valley, Swedish Lapland

“…At a later time, when the remnant ice in the Vuolvojaure valley had melted, the greater part of the meltwater was probably diverted and drained via Lake Vuolvojaure and the present Pite River (Elfstr6m 1983(Elfstr6m , 1987Elfstrom and Rossbacher 1985). At a later time, when the remnant ice in the Vuolvojaure valley had melted, the greater part of the meltwater was probably diverted and drained via Lake Vuolvojaure and the present Pite River (Elfstr6m 1983(Elfstr6m , 1987Elfstrom and Rossbacher 1985).…”

“…In three previous articles I have reported on different aspects of a large boulder delta complex in the Baldakatj area, Swedish Lapland, as related to the catastrophic drainage of icedammed lakes (Elf-str6m 1983;Elfstrom and Rossbacher 1985;Elf-str6m 1987). However, large boulder deposits and vast areas of stream-washed bedrock exist at several places outside of the Baldakatj area in the upper Pite River valley (Hoppe 1969;Ulfstedt 1979Ulfstedt , 1980aSundborg et al 1980).…”
