Why are there no Piedmont glaciers to be fond in Anchorage Alaska?
The geography of the Anchroage area won't support a Piedmont glacier. This glacier (the Piedmont glacier) is characterized by large stagnant ice sheets where a glacier or glaciers "doesn't/don't have anywhere to go" for lack of an outlet. All the areas around Anchroage, Alaska slope down to the sea. There is no place for the ice of a Piedmont glacier to "build up" for lack of a way to "break out" or to "get stopped" to form this glacier.

Which landform can a moving mountain glacier carve?
A moving mountain glacier can carve a U-shaped valley. As the glacier moves downhill, it erodes the sides and bottom of the valley, creating a distinctive U-shaped cross-section. The glacier's immense weight and motion combined with erosion from the ice can shape the landform over time.

A moraine is any glacially formed accumulation of unconsolidated glacial debris
