Anthropogenic climate change threatens water storage and supply in the periglacial critical zone. Rock glaciers are widely distributed alpine aquifers with slower response to temperature increases, that provide the summer water flow of many alpine streams. Knowing the extent and makeup of rock glaciers is necessary to evaluate their potential for water supply. We used non-invasive methods, integrating geological, geomorphological, meteorological, and geophysical information to characterize the internal structure and hydrology of the Upper Camp Bird rock glacier (UCBRG) located on level 3 of Camp Bird Mine in Ouray, Colorado, and assessed the applicability of two electromagnetic induction systems in this highly heterogeneous landform with a history of anthropogenic activity. The time-domain (G-TEM™) system achieved deep subsurface penetration (~100 m) and realistic modeling of the internal structure of the UCBRG: a shell of volcanic rock fragments (<3 m thick; 1–100 Ohm-m), a meltwater component (102–103 Ohm-m), located between 50 and 100 m near the toe (subpermafrost flow), and 1–30 m in the soundings farthest from the toe (suprapermafrost flow within the active layer), and a frozen component (permafrost 50–80 m thick; 103–106 Ohm-m). The frequency-domain system, however, was highly susceptible to local environmental conditions, including anthropogenic objects (i.e., mine carts, lamp posts, tunnel tracks, etc.) and was unable to resolve UCBRG's internal makeup. The non-invasive methodology and general conceptual framework presented here can be used to characterize other alpine aquifers, contributing to the quantification of global water resources, and highlighting the importance of preserving rock glaciers as storage for critical water supply in the future. •We use non-invasive methods including electromagnetic induction (EM) to determine the internal structure of a rock glacier•We assess the applicability of two controlled-source EM systems (TDEM and FDEM) on a highly heterogeneous landform•The TDEM system is adequate to map the distribution of the electrical resistivity at depth (up to 100 m)•The principles are not satisfied to compute the apparent conductivity from FDEM data
