Abstract

Glacier Kolka fall of 20 September 2002 is investigated on the basis of instrumental data: seismic records, data of operational scheme of Genaldon gorge and results of macroseismic exploration. Velocities of ice-rock flow on different stages, its length intensity of impact on the slope in the region of Karmadon Gates were estimated.
