With an official "US States with Glaciers" quiz made by Quizmaster, I have renamed this quiz to be more accurate to the hints and differentiate it from that quiz. This quiz includes features that are not counted as glaciers in that quiz, which focuses on named glaciers only to my understanding. This quiz includes permanent snowfields, which may or may not move from year to year and are then considered glaciers.
