What type of glacier forms when ice and snow build up in a mountain valley on a continent?
The type of glacier that forms when ice and snow accumulate in a mountain valley on a continent is called a valley glacier, or alpine glacier. These glaciers flow down the valley, shaped by the terrain and gravitational forces, and are typically found in mountainous regions. They can vary in size and are often a key feature of mountainous landscapes.
How do alpine glaciers form?
Alpine glaciers form when snow accumulates in a mountain valley and compacts over time into ice. The weight of the ice causes it to flow downhill, carving out the valley and creating a glacier. Cold temperatures and consistent snowfall are necessary to sustain an alpine glacier.

It stretches approximately 23 kilometers (14 miles) and is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site known as the Swiss Alps Jungfrau-Aletsch. The glacier plays a crucial role in the region's ecosystem and is an important indicator of climate change.
