0 a deep crack near or at the top of a glacier, separating moving ice from ice that is not moving -- 冰後隙(冰川頂部或其附近的深度裂縫,將移動的冰與靜止的冰分開)
Engel notes that the party were all nearly obliterated by rockfall while they were crossing the bergschrund.
The northeast face is the shortest of the peak's faces but has many bergschrunds.
Moving glacier ice can sometimes separate from stagnant ice above, forming a bergschrund.
However, the randkluft is sometimes called a bergschrund.
They cross the bergschrund and climb a few feet of easy rock.
Towards the summit was a bergschrund, in most places 30ft m wide, traversing the width of the glacier, and impassable without a long ladder.
It involves crossing a number of crevasses in the glacier and may be impassible due to wall-to-wall bergschrund at the upper end.
A bergschrund forms when the movement of the glacier separates the moving ice from the stationary ice forming a crevasse.
