There are two basic types of glaciers, those that flow outward in all directions with little regard for underlying terrain
and those that are confirmed by terrain to a particular path. The first category of glaciers includes those massive blankets
that cover whole continents, appropriately called ice sheets. There must be over 50,000 square kilometers of land covered
with ice for the glaciers to qualify as an ice sheet. When portions of an ice sheet spread out over the ocean, they form ice
shelves. About 20,000 years ago the Cordilleran Ice Sheet covered nearly all the mountains in the southern Alaska,
western Canada, and the western United States. It was about 3 kilometers deep in its thickest point in northern Alberta.
Now there only two sheets left on Earth, those covering Greenland and Antarctica. Any domelike body of ice that also
flows out in all directions but covers less than 50,000 square kilometers is called an ice cap. Although ice caps are rare
nowadays, there are a number in northeastern Canada, on Baffin Island, and on the Queen Elizabeth Island. The second
category of glaciers includes those of a variety of shapes and sizes generally called mountain or alpine glaciers. Mountain
glaciers are typically identified by the landform that controls their flow. One form of mountain glaciers that resembles an
ice cap in that it flows outward in several directions is called an ice field. The difference between an ice field and an ice
cap is subtle. Essentially, the flow of an ice field is somewhat controlled by surrounding terrain and thus does not have
the domelike shape of a cap. There are several ice fields in the Wrangell, St.Elias, and Chugach mountains of Alaska and
northern British Columbia. Less spectacular than large ice fields are the most common types of mountains glaciers: the
cirque and valley glaciers. Cirque glaciers are found in depressions in the surface of the land and have a characteristic
circular shape. The ice of valley glaciers, bound by terrain, flows down valleys, curves around their corners, and falls over

cliffs.
