All Glaciers of the Alps

This child group collects Glaciers of Europe members located in the Alps, spanning Switzerland, Austria, France, Italy and the Bavarian Alps of Germany, including well-documented named glaciers of the Mont Blanc Massif, the Valais and the Tyrol. The Alps are Europe's most intensively studied glaciated range, with centuries of mapping and, more recently, some of the world's longest continuous mass-balance records, which is why they account for the majority of this parent group's named entries even after Scandinavia, the Caucasus and other ranges are split out.
