Summary edit

Description
English: Extraordinary morphology of the landform of lower river Lauchert around the geotope "Bittelschießer Täle", Swabian Alb.
From the end of the Mindel-Eiszeit (German), ~ 0,900Ma, the Upper Danube transitionally used and deepened the river bed of the Lauchert, until, in the mid Riß-Eiszeit (German), ~ 0,150Ma, the Rhine Glacier advanced twice, dammed up and blocked the Danube and the Lauchert, filled the Danube bed and packed the terrain with moraines.
In the next interglacial the Lauchert eroded the moraine debris and then cut a new canyon into a massive limestone, rather than reusing its former bed right next to it.
The Danube carved itself a new bed further south.
Deutsch: Ungewöhnliche geologische Situation beim Geotop Bittelschießer Täle, Unterlauf der Lauchert, Schwäbische Alb.
Eine nach-mindeleiszeitliche (~ 0,900Ma) Obere Donau benutzte und vertiefte in der Mittleren Riß-Eiszeit (~ 0,150Ma) das alte Lauchertbett bis zur vollständigen Plombierung durch den vordringenden Rheingletscher.
Das Bittelschießer Täle ist eine Neuschaffung der Lauchert. Nachdem es den Gletscherschutt ausgeräumt hatte nutzte es wieder sein altes Bett, jedoch nicht durchgehend. Vielmehr schnitt es in einen im Weg stehenden Massenkalkhügel ein Canyon.
