Description: A view of glacial, U-shaped valley with several small recessional moraines and a moraine-dammed lake. The lake's shape is parallel to that of the moraines, indicating its glacial origin. The recessional moraines indicate several events of glacial retreat hiatuses. The rock face in the background shows the Cretaceous - age sedimentary rocks that make up the landscape in the Sierra Nevada del Cocuy area.
