Here's more about them:
* Formation: Cirques are formed by glacial erosion. As glaciers move down a mountainside, they carve out the bedrock, creating these bowl-shaped depressions.
* Features:
* Steep back walls
* A relatively flat floor
* A lip or threshold at the lower end
* Location: Found at the heads of valleys, often forming the source of streams or rivers.
* Significance: Cirques are important indicators of past glacial activity and play a role in shaping the landscape of mountainous regions.
