Abstract
In the Tatra Mountains the moraines formed prior to the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) occur only in their most glaciated part—the High Tatras. The moraines are especially common on the Southern High Tatra forelands where the flat relief allowed the Pleistocene piedmont glacier to form an impressive pre-LGM and LGM moraine landscape. The old moraine landscape is strongly degraded, seen as subdued till covers with scattered and well-weathered boulders and, in part, as very subdued moraine ridges. Old moraines occur c. 1 km beyond fresh-shaped LGM moraines. The chronology of older moraines is poorly documented. The exposure ages of pre-LGM glacial boulders on the northern slope of the massif suggest that pre-LGM moraines were formed during Penultimate Glaciation (MIS - Marine Isotope Stage 6), but, in some locations, the remnants of older Middle Pleistocene glaciation tills cannot be ruled out.
