  2. 6. a steep-sided ravine or valley formed by glacial meltwater or lava flow
  3. 10. a flat-topped deposit of sediment along a valley wall formed by meltwater
  4. 11. a broad, flat area of glacial sediment deposited by meltwater in front of a glacier
  5. 13. a mound of glacial sediment formed by meltwater deposition
  6. 17. sediment deposited by meltwater from a glacier
  7. 19. debris deposited at the front of a glacier
  8. 20. a low pass or saddle between two glacial valleys
  9. 21. related to sediments deposited in a lake formed by glacial meltwater
  10. 22. a lake formed at the edge of a glacier
  11. 24. a U-shaped valley carved by a glacier
  12. 29. unsorted glacial sediment deposited directly by ice
  13. 31. an accumulation of glacial debris formed by moving ice
  14. 33. a deep, narrow coastal valley flooded by the sea, formed by glacial erosion
  15. 34. a small mountain lake formed in a cirque left by a glacier
  16. 35. a ridge of debris in the center of a glacier formed by merging lateral moraines
  17. 38. debris deposited along the sides of a glacier
  18. 39. a thick, floating platform of glacial ice attached to a landmass
Down
  1. 1. an area near glaciers characterized by freeze-thaw processes and permafrost
  2. 2. a bedrock hill smoothed on one side and plucked on the other by glacial movement
  3. 3. a flat area eroded and smoothed by glacial movement
  4. 4. a chain of small lakes connected by a stream in a glacial valley
  5. 7. a long, winding ridge of sediment deposited by a stream flowing under a glacier
  6. 8. the farthest end moraine marking the maximum advance of a glacier
  7. 9. a smaller glacial valley that joins a deeper main valley, often with a waterfall
  8. 12. the scraping and grinding of bedrock by debris carried in moving ice
  9. 14. a water-filled kettle formed by melting ice blocks
  10. 15. a large boulder transported and deposited by a glacier far from its source
  11. 16. a ridge of debris left during a temporary halt in glacier retreat
  12. 18. a large chunk of ice floating in the ocean, broken off from a glacier or ice shelf
  13. 23. a sharp mountain peak formed by the erosion of multiple glaciers
  14. 25. a sharp ridge between two glacial valleys or cirques
  15. 26. an irregular blanket of till deposited beneath a glacier
  16. 27. an elongated hill of glacial till shaped by moving ice
