What glacial feature causes piles of rocks?
The glacial feature that causes piles of rocks is known as a "moraine." Moraines are formed from the debris (such as rocks and sediment) that glaciers transport and deposit as they move and melt. There are different types of moraines, including terminal moraines, which mark the furthest advance of a glacier, and lateral moraines, which form along the sides of a glacier. These piles of rocks can create distinct landforms in glaciated regions.
