• It is, of course, only in mountainous country with lakes and corries that this type of scheme can be carried through.

• I should have thought the only difficult areas were those with corries and rock dens, where gassing will not work.

• The three summits are tightly grouped around a small corrie (glacial cirque), but their spectacular form is due to large-scale landslipping, not ice erosion.

• Two ridges run north-east from the summit with one curving north-west to enclose a high corrie.

• As well as ski tows, snow fences and bulldozed tracks, this corrie is also now home to a funicular railway.

• The tarn is a waterfilled corrie about 50 ft deep, this being enhanced by a dam.

• This corrie has a history of previous avalanches.

• It has been claimed that this corrie may have contained a glacier as recently as the 18th century.

• The tarn is a water filled corrie about 50 ft deep, this being enhanced by a dam.

• The summit stands on the edge of the cliffs overlooking the corrie.

• This corrie tarn, held in place by grassy moraines is around 65 ft deep.

• It harboured a number of corrie glaciers, most of which are now occupied by loughs.

• This is a classic corrie tarn, held in by a whalebacked moraine and having a depth of around 60 ft.

• Paternosters occur in alpine valleys, climbing one after the other to the valley's head, called a corrie, which often contains a cirque lake.

• In a corrie or cirque, the bergschrund is positioned at the rear, parallel to the back wall of the corrie.
