Falling Ice Glacier, Mountain glacier in Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming, United States.
The Falling Ice Glacier rests on the southeastern cliffs of Mount Moran, creating a white and gray pattern visible from Jackson Hole valley.
The glacier emerged during the Little Ice Age between 1350 and 1850, and has experienced continuous reduction in size since the mid-nineteenth century.
Scientists and researchers regularly monitor the glacier's conditions to understand climate patterns and environmental changes in the Grand Teton mountain range.
Visitors can observe the glacier from designated viewpoints along park roads, with the best viewing locations situated near Mount Moran turnouts.
The glacier's meltwater flows directly into Leigh Lake, contributing to the water system that sustains local wildlife and vegetation throughout Teton County.
