example at Thorpe Cloud and Wetton Hill. Two belts of harder, dolomitized limestone occur in the south east of the region. The most distinctive landscape features associated with these limestones are the prominent dolomite tors, notably Rainster Rocks and Harboro Rocks. Volcanic rocks, locally termed 'toadstones', commonly occur interbedded within the limestone in the White Peak
Particularly near the crest of the range, the summit ridges are mostly steep sided forms that alpinists would call arêtes. Exposed ledges of bedrock, mantled only here and there by talus, are surmounted by little or no flat space at the ridgeline (figs. 3 and 4). Subordinate ridges between canyons, on the other hand, commonly broaden away
K kame A short, steep sided knoll of glacial sediment. karst A type of topography formed by dissolution of rocks like limestone and gypsum that is characterized by sinkholes, caves, and subterranean passages.
