Kichikアライ西部の石灰岩の峡谷、アライ山脈の北側でIspairan川に出会う 峡谷の上部は、恐らく氷河によって広げられており、底部にある細長いシルトは氷河期後に削り取られたことを示す 中心の渓谷は、写真が撮られた側から見ると、明らかに氷河によって作られたもので、横側の渓谷は主流と関係があるに違いないLimestone Gorge of the Western Kichik Alai, where it enters the Ispairan River on the north side of the Alai Mountains. Probably the upper portion of the gorge was widened by a glacier, and the narrow slit at the bottom represents post-glacial cutting. The main valley, from the side of which the photograph was taken, is clearly of glacial origin, and the side valley must have borne a hanging relation to that of the master stream.
