Northern slope of Mt. Scindarella, Campo Imperatore intermontane Quaternary basin, Gran Sasso range (central Italy). This is a remnant of a thrust sheet belonging to the Gran Sasso imbricate, here represented by folded strata of Fucoida Marls Formation (Lower Cenomanian - Aptian). What you see is an array of glacial cirques (clearly developed only on its northern flank) with conspicuous moraines downslope. These moraines underwent extensive karst and piping (common to the overall Campo Imperatore basin). Some fractures are found on the moraines surface (although very smoothed) but it is unclear whether they mimic underlying faults or strata terminations from below or they are minor Quaternary fault splays
