Topic: Iceberg Cirque

	Cirque (landform) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A cirque is an amphitheatre-like valley (or valley head) of glacial origin, formed by glacial erosion at the head of the glacier.
		Cirques form in conditions which are favorable; which in the northern hemisphere includes the north-east slope being in shade and away from prevailing winds.
		Cirques form in conditions which are favorable for glacier formation - where snow can accumulate into a thick and large mass.

	Iceberg Lake
		The trail to Iceberg Lake is 9 miles roundtrip and passes through prime Grizzly Bear territory, so it is not a good idea to be caught hiking after dark.
		Iceberg Lake is an aquamarine jewel, which is surrounded on three sides by towering mountains.
		Ice-out often does not occur until mid-July, and icebergs for which the lake was named can be seen floating in the lake after the melt occurs.

		Iceberg Lake was the deepest blue colored lake amongst all of the lakes they had seen.
		Iceberg Lake is probably one of the few freshwater lakes in the world with icebergs and is certainly the smallest.

	Glacier Glossary
		One unit of atmospheric pressure is equal to the total weight of the air on the earth's surface at sea level (14.70 pounds per square inch).
		Icebergs which originate from near the base of a glacier.
		The snowfields or cirques of mountain glaciers and the snowfields of continental glaciers are called the zone of accumulation because it is here than new snow falls to nourish the glacier.

		Crossed part of the snowfield that slopes into Cecile Lake before coming to a shaded area that was still rock hard, detoured up a few hundred feet onto a safe rocky ridge and down the other side.
		Happily, as you actually start going over the edge, it is revealed to be not so steep and mostly rocky with good footing...and the snowfield at the foot is almost flat.
		Most of the other lakes have large irregular chunks of ice in them, but for some reason in Iceberg the ice breaks into neat polygonal shapes and drifts around the lake pushed by the wind.

	Iceberg Lake in Strathcona Park By CATHERINE TEMPLE
		With a slight vertical climb of 550 meters and a distance of 22 kilometers, it was a day of exercise, clear headedness, and bewilderment that such an incredible journey should invoke such grounded piece of mind.
		The evidence of a dramatic earthquake measuring 7.8 on the Richter scale is witnessed the length of the trail.
		As diverse as it is untamed, the Elk River Valley (named for its resident herds of Roosevelt Elk), has numerous waterfalls, massive stands of old growth timber, streams and rivers galore, wildlife in numbers, fresh seasonal berries, and ever-changing wildflowers - all nestled in the arms of 7,000-foot mountain peaks.

	Glacier National Park: Iceberg Lake
		Named after the many icebergs that are found floating in its waters, Iceberg Lake sits high in a cirque, a steep wall found at the head of a glacial valley.
		Technically, Iceberg Lake is a tarn, or glacially carved lake that was sculpted long ago.
		Iceberg Lake is a brilliant turquoise color and bears many floating icebergs, even well into the summer.

	Montana Trip
		This lake, as well as Cracker and Helen Lakes where we later camped, is surrounded by bare-faced mountains on three sides with a green open area, either a meadow or forest, as its fourth side.
		We learned that snow, gathering and compacting into glaciers, carved out pockets, or cirques, from the mountain as they moved downward into valleys during the Great Ice Age.
		The weather was chilly at Iceberg Lake, although the rain had stopped.

		Iceberg Lake, also known as a tarn, resides in a cirque that was carved out long ago by glacial activity.
		Snowfields seen at the head of the lake are remnants of a glacier that once occupied this basin.
		In addition to a host of various wildflowers, Beargrass, a lily native to Glacier, blooms in abundance along the Iceberg Lake trail.

	Glacier Part Two - Many Glacier
		Iceberg Lake Trail is a nice dayhike from the trailhead adjacent to Swiftcurrent Motor Inn to Iceberg Cirque.
		The trail is on the southern exposure of the glacial valley, and climbs in and out of treeline, mostly out, so if it is a sunny day you will get the full force of it during most of the hike.
		By the time you reach Iceberg Cirque the ground may be completely covered with snow, and the trail only distinguishable by the orange markers (and possibly by the footprints of others).

		This is the approach for the Icebox Express and northeast ridge route on Heartbeat.
		These hikes are easy, but avoid the steep eastern faces and cirques which give this area of the Front Range much of its charm.

		It wasn't obvious to me from Davis (or from Rodgers last year, for that matter) that Electra could be easily climbed from the east, but since Secor rated it class 2 via its north ridge, I took it on faith that the apparent cliffs near the top must be easier than they looked from afar.
		From the cirque, there seemed to be a number of ways to go--heading up over snow to the south ridge was one possibility, over loose talus to the north ridge another, either way class 2.
		I was delighted to discover that the northeast side of the peak was climbable directly over some enjoyable third class slabs and ledges, a nice scramble on solid rock.

		The Titanic was the largest Ship built prior to 1912 and the largest moving object built by man. On a calm April night in 1912, the ship of dreams, struck an iceberg and slowly sank in the freezing water of the North Atlantic.
		You can press your palms on an "iceberg" to sense what it was like for passengers thrown into the frigid water that night.
		An eclectic exhibition of artwork by the Cirque du Soleil cast and crew titled "The Collective" opened last Friday at the Arts Factory and will be open to the public for the month of April.

		Geologic features associated with glaciers include end; lateral; ground and medial moraine s that form from glacially transported rocks and debris ; glaciated valley s and corrie s (cirque (landform)) at their heads; and the glacier fringe; which is the area where the glacier has recently melted into water.
		Horns are formed by cirques that encircle a single mountain.
		After the glacier is gone; this often leaves a bowl or amphitheater-shaped depression called a cirque (landform).

	Rec-Vee
		When ice breaks of from the terminus of a glacier it is called calving and is accompanied with noise when the ice beaks off above the water; when the ice breaks off form below the water line there is no noticeable noise associated with it, only a frothing action on the water's
		surface before the iceberg pops out of the water.
		A dark blue iceberg was formed from ice that came from the lower part of a glacier where most of the air bubbles were compressed out of it.

		Above that we would hike to the Iceberg Lakes before trying our hands at Icebox Express, a "moderate snow climb" to the summit of the unofficially named "Heartbeat Peak".
		I carefully noted that there was a hill dividing the Crater drainage to the north from the Iceberg drainage we were headed for.
		It turns out there are two ridges guarding the entrance to the Iceberg Cirque.

	Glacial Topography
		Use diagrams from text or photocopies of diagrams that illustrate a moving glacier and label (or have the students label) the following: tongue of glacier, head of glacier, terminal moraine, lateral moraine, medial moraine, erratic, iceberg, and cirque.
		Have students look at pictures of glaciated topography to see what is left from retreating glaciers including the moraines, erratics, u-shaped valleys, and cirque lakes.
		Divide students into groups that will create models that illustrate the glacial topography of Alaska in various stages: 1: before the glacier, 2: an expanding glacier, 3: a retreating glacier, and 4: the remaining topography after the glacier is gone.
