What is a confined glacier?
A confined glacier is a glacier that is confined by topography. For example, a glacier that forms on a mountain. Continental glaciers, by contrast, are not affected. The glaciers on Antarctica and Greenland are continental glaciers. The glaciers at Glacier Bay National Park, or on a mountain are confined glaciers.
What is an example of a glacier moving boulder?
An example of a glacier moving a boulder would be when a large rock is picked up by a glacier as it flows downhill, and is transported along with the ice to a new location. This process, known as glacial plucking, occurs when the ice melts and the boulder is deposited on the ground.
What is a valley that has been glaciated by a smaller side glacier and is left standing higher than the main u-shaped valley is?

What solid layers can flow?
