Some observations concerning the morphology and sedimentology of a protalus rampart,Okstindan, Norway

A protaius rampart up to 4.75 m high and consisting largely of angular clasts up to boulder size is described. Bulk samples contained up to 35 per cent fines by weight, compared with up to 68 per cent fines in adjacent till. Although the rampart material was clast dominated, fines filled much of the void space, in contrast with most other protalus ramparts described in the literature.
