Denudation processes affecting mountain slopes may vary according to different factors (e.g., lithology and structural setting of bedrock, climate, relief features), which may be very diverse at the local scale. Gully complex systems, characterised by morphological features similar to those developing in other climate contexts (i.e., pseudo-badlands) are also becoming common at higher altitudes and latitudes. The *Revised manuscript with no changes marked Click here to view linked References selected study cases of Gran Gorgia (Susa Valley) and Saint Nicolas (Aosta Valley), in the Western Italian Alps, are sites of geomorphological interest as they are specifically relevant for their scientific features. The aims of this work are (i) reconstructing the morphometric evolution of gullies edges and vegetation colonisation in specific years by means of multitemporal spatial analysis on variation of surface areas affected by erosion; (ii) performing dendrogeomorphological analysis to spatially reconstruct, with a more continuous record through time, the effects of denudation processes affecting trees colonising the different regions of the gullies and the erosion rates by using dendrogeomorphological indicators (i.e., compression wood, traumatic resin ducts) and exposed roots and (iii) performing geopedological investigations aimed at deriving data on aggradation/degradation episodes along the slopes surrounding such hot-spots of erosion through time. Multidisciplinary analyses regarding the study sites allowed for detailing of erosional history of the studied slopes detecting the prevailing drivers of their evolution. According to the results and considering the common climate and bedrock conditions, the structural background seems to have more influence on slope evolution at the Saint Nicolas site, while superficial geomorphic processes seem to be more relevant at the Gran Gorgia site. Because the sites have already been recognised as part of geoheritage by local authorities, the data obtained in the present research on their genesis, evolution, and local drivers affecting the rates of denudation (i.e., scientific relevance of the site) suggests that description of the sites for dissemination purposes should include links to the entire slope history.
