Yes, glaciers played a significant role in shaping various landscapes. As they advance and retreat, they carve out valleys, create fjords, and deposit sediments that form features like moraines and drumlins. This glacial activity has contributed to the topography of many regions, including parts of North America and Europe. Overall, glaciers are key architects of the Earth's surface.
