Abstract

In the first part of the paper the author put forward four points: 1. The U valley of Wangjiapo; 2. The cirque of Daao; 3. The glacial straition and, 4. The glacial deposit in Lushan to prove there are glacial relics in Lushan. Further more, the author based on his stu-die’s on a "mud rock flow" of Lushan, affirm that neither the form nor its low altitude position, it was formed during Quaternary period by glaciation, and late ice age’s running water, due to the its geologic structure and the nature of the rocks. Judging by the disposition of the mud rock, the author believe that it is a typical glacial drift of monsoon oceanic glacier instead of a mud rock flow.
