Cover Story: In high mountain areas, morphology is mainly conditioned by glacial shaping. Deep-seated gravitational slope deformations may also develop due to high relief energy. The Lac Fallère area represents a significant example of how it is possible to preserve and identify the relationships between glacial shaping (mainly evidenced by glacial slopes, moraines, roches moutonnées) and gravitational structures (minor scarps, trenches, counterscarps, bulging reliefs). Lac Fallère is not a typical subcircular cirque lake. Its elongated shape in the WSW–ENE direction and the presence of a straight wall upstream suggest a glacial cirque significantly affected by the evolution of gravitational trenches. The glacier was barred by a wide and relatively high gravitational bulging relief that forced it to flow through two glacial tongues with opposite flow directions, resulting in a glacial diffluence.
