Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A hanging valley is often found where a smaller glacier, such as a tributary to a larger glacier, joins a larger glacier. When the smaller glacier melts away, the valley floor of the tributary is left high above the valley floor of the main glacier. This creates a waterfall or steep rapid when water flows over the edge of the hanging valley and drops down to the main glacier valley.
