a glacier groove is when it scratches or gouges or cuts into bedrock's by the process of glacial abrasion.
A glacial groove is a long, linear indentation or scratch in bedrock that is formed by the movement of a glacier. As the glacier flows over the rock surface, it picks up and carries rock debris, causing abrasion and carving grooves into the bedrock. These grooves provide evidence of past glacial activity and can help scientists understand the direction and extent of glacial movement.
No, a glacier canyon is not a real glacier. A glacier canyon is a canyon formed by the movement of a glacier over time, carving out the landscape as it flows.
The tip of a glacier is called the glacier terminus or glacier snout. It is the furthest point reached by the glacier as it flows downhill.
The Aletsch Glacier in Switzerland is the longest glacier in the Alps, stretching for about 14 miles. However, the Lambert Glacier in Antarctica holds the title for the world's longest glacier, extending over 60 miles.
The largest glacier in Europe is the Austfonna Glacier located in Svalbard, Norway. It covers an area of around 8,100 square kilometers.

The glacier abrades the bedrock and the material is carried by ice. The groove is scoured in the bedrock by the boulders carried at the bottom of the ice. Grooves have various sizes.
* Fryingpan Glacier * Nisqually Glacier * Paradise Glacier * Pyramid Glacier * Puyallup Glacier * South Tahoma Glacier * Tahoma Glacier * Success Glacier * Sarvent Glacier

It is apline glacier
There are quite a few glaciers to hike to in Glacier, but probably the most-visited glacier is Grinnell Glacier, located in the Many Glacier Valley.
* Franz Josef Glacier * Fox Glacier * Tasman Glacier * Hukawai Glacier * Haast Glaciers
