The density of ice at 0°C is 0.9167 g/cm³. The density increases slightly at lower temperatures.
Therefore, the volume and temperature of the glacier is needed in order to calculate the exact weight.
Stop fliwing
Glaciers advance when snow accumulation exceeds melting and sublimation. This typically happens during periods of increased snowfall or decreased temperatures. As more snow accumulates, it compresses into ice and causes the glacier to move forward.
The National Parks Service does list wolverines as present in Glacier NP, but these reclusive animals are VERY difficult to spot.
Lead is very heavy, but it is not as valuable or desirable as gold.
A glacier is an example of a solid that flows, albeit very slowly.
What can happen when the glacier melts in a cirque
the glacier dropped small rocks as it melted. An erratic is a large boulder left behind after a glacier has melted

It's heavy, it moves, it grinds.
Your car will still steer but it will feel very heavy.
Wind does not carry heavy objects.
Glacial erratics aren't exactly formed. They were deposited by glaciers that were moving in that area at one time. improved= Glacial erratics are exactly formed. Because a glacier is so heavy, the glacier can pluck large rocks as the glacier moves. When the rock is too heavy for the glacier to hold, or the glacier is retreating, it then deposits the rock in a place where it wouldn't usually be found. This is what an erratic is. A large piece of rock in an unusual surrounding. i hope this helps :)
