The area of Lycksabäcken northwest of Lycksele is a national interest of natural conservation because of its geological values with many unique landforms. Many of these landforms indicate that the deglaciation process in the area was very complex. However, the deglaciation process in the area has not previously been fully understood. The aim is to add to the knowledge of the events that took place during the last deglaciation. To do this, the glaciofluvial landforms in the area were mapped by studying aerial photographs with a Wild Aviopreter and a five-day field inventory of key areas for the interpretation. These landforms were then transferred to a map in ArcGIS in which scenarios of the deglaciation were constructed. The inversion from landform pattern to a scenario of the deglaciation was based on seven general assumptions and the attempt to create the least complex explanation of the origin of these landforms. The results show that the valley of Umeälven must have been blocked at least three times during the deglaciation in the area, which lead to a redirection of the meltwater flow into the area of Lycksabäcken. There, dead ice played a major role in the formation of the glaciofluvial landforms by damming lakes which enabled delta formation, the formation of many meltwater channels and a large sandur. During the field inventory a large amount of preglacially weathered rock surfaces was found in the area which would be interesting to investigate further.
