Permafrost areas receive more and more attention in terms of natural hazards in recent years due to ongoing global warming. Active rockglaciers are mixtures of debris and ice (of different origin) in high-relief environments indi- cating permafrost conditions for a substantial period of time. Style and velocity of the downward movement of this debris- ice-mass is influenced by topoclimatic conditions. The rock- glacier Hinteres Langtalkar is stage of extensive modifica- tions in the last decade as a consequence of an extraordi- nary high surface movement. Terrestrial laserscanning (or LiDAR) campaigns have been out once or twice per year since 2000 to monitor surface dynamics at the highly ac- tive front of the rockglacier. High resolution digital terrain models are the basis for annual and inter-annual analysis of surface elevation changes. Results show that the observed area shows predominantly positive surface elevation changes causing a consequent lifting of the surface over the entire period. Nevertheless a decreasing surface lifting of the ob- served area in the last three years leads to the assumption that the material transport from the upper part declines in the last years. Furthermore the rockglacier front is characterized by extensive mass wasting and partly disintegration of the rockglacier body. As indicated by the LiDAR results as well as from field evidence, this rockglacier front seems to repre- sent a permafrost influenced landslide.
