Information About

Ice Cap




Ice caps are not constrained by Topographical features (i.e. they will lie over the top of mountains) but their ''dome'' is usually centred around the highest point of a Massif . Ice flows away from this high point (the Ice Divide ) towards the ice cap's periphery.

Vatnajökull is an example of an ice cap in Iceland .
