Answer:
As snow accumulates year after year, the compacted snow turns to ice. If an ice field grows large enough, the ice will flow and slide downhill under its own weight, forming a glacier. These ice bodies are a balance between accumulating winter snow and melting during warm summer days.

Answer:
It forms when two glaciers meet and the debris on the edges of the adjacent valley sides join and are carried on top of the enlarged glacier. As the glacier melts or retreats, the debris is deposited and a ridge down the middle of the valley floor is created.
