Facts about glaciers ;)
Glaciers are thick sheets of ice frozen solid. Millions of years ago glaciers took lots of the earth but now there are just a few places for them to form. Glaciers are also powerful ,for example it destroyed the titanic.

More facts
Glaciers can also carve landforms like lakes or valleys. To do this the big things crash into lands and flow through rivers eroding rock. The stuff that they pick up is called glacial debris. This is a mixture that contains gravel, rocks, and sand.
These rocks are glacial debris too!
The arrows shown on this photo are parts of glacial debris.
After carving this valley the glacier left behind glacial debris.
Cool facts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Glaciers often have caves in them. This happens when the glacial debris melts from the walls inside places where the debris falls and breaks the inside. Example below.
This man is exploring this glacier cave cut out from glacial debris.
If you get lost in a glacier cave remember this that there must be a way out because the glacial debris breaks a wall out and that is why you have easy ventilation.
This is a very small glacier cave.

Glaciers over took this house.
