Is glaciers light?

Glaciers appear white or blue in color because they are made up of compacted snow and ice, which reflects and scatters sunlight. This gives them a lighter appearance compared to surrounding rocks or land. Underneath the surface, glaciers can have layers of sediment or debris that may darken their color in some areas.
