Grinnell Glacier is located in the Lewis mountain range in the Rocky Mountains of northern Montana. It can been here filling the basin (upper centre). Glaciers are large, slow-moving expanses of ice, formed from compacted layers of snow. They are sensitive to climate change and in recent years most have retreated dramatically.
