Resumen
The culmination of the Béjar range is a planation surface of the peneplain type and those features have been the determining factor for the development of ice cap glaciers type; in addition, both the morphostructure and the tectonic structure did condition the marked asymmetry on the development of the glaciers. These processes have been allocated on the upper Pleistocene (It is a stage that correspond to theWürm of alpine glacial chronology) throughout correlation with criteria of relative dating. In this paper we present the results obtained on the identification of the tills deposits and, in addition, the spatial analysis of the glacier shapes with the aim of developing the mopho-graphic modeling of the main evolving stages of glaciarism in these ranges.
