Diagram of a mountain region from which the former glaciers have melted away, leaving the cirques to testify to their former presence. Some of the cirques diverge, leaving a broad rounded ridge between them, others converge, being separated only by a serrated knife-edge or arete.

"At 1, a series of compressed folds has been worn down to a plain, the surface of which is formed by the edges of the nearly vertical strata. At 2 an anticline has been reduced to a valley, and at 3 a syncline is left standing as a ridge made up of concave strata like a pile of platters. The ridges at 4 are projections of hard strata above the more easily eroded ones on either side." -Dryer, 1901
