Glacial uplands formed by the Middle Weichselian ice cover are referred as being relatively stable ever since except for periods of erosional incising. However, investigating postglacial cover of interfluvial landscapes we revealed major shifts in the set and dynamics of geomorphic agents those have substantially shaped their exterior during the Late Pleistocene and Holocene. Prolonged lacustrine sedimentation and several intensifications of slope mass movement have significantly lowered relative elevations of glacial interfluves. Penetrated by a sequence of distinct cryogenic relicts and incorporating series of paleopedogenic features these strata display a potential to be reliable archives for detailed paleogeographic reconstructions.
