The summit of Helvellyn is an example of a pyramidal peak. However, due to erosion, during the  coldest part of the glacial period when ice completely covered the area. It lacks more than two corries on its flanks, hence has been less sharply eroded by the retreat of their back walls.

In the Hellvelyn range, there is a corrie that contains a tarn called the Red Tarn. This is separated from the Nethermost Cove by a narrow Arete called Striding Edge. Ice from Red Tarn flowed into the valley of Glenridding, forming a glacier large enough to create a small glacial trough. This is through the process of abrasion.

These are recessional moraines.

It is home to the Skiddaw Slates and these are the oldest rock type in the area. It was formed nearly 500 million years ago when black muds and sands settled. Since then they have been pushed up by tectonic forces and are now found in the north and in the mountain ranges which are typically smooth.]]> 2019-11-13 12:25:19 UTC https://padlet.com/t_knott/5cednq2qhac7/wish/410510146 https://padlet.com/t_knott/5cednq2qhac7/wish/410510318 320 million years old shell and small animals remnants.]]> 2019-11-13 12:25:49 UTC https://padlet.com/t_knott/5cednq2qhac7/wish/410510318 https://padlet.com/t_knott/5cednq2qhac7/wish/410510398 The Naddle Valley has a small terminal moraine.
