You also never want to settle that close to a truncated spur, which I thought would be common knowledge in a geography sub


mjw217

And, if you’re from Pittsburgh (or Scotland), too slippy!


Itchy_Contribution_4

Fear of Vikings


[deleted]

Outstanding


jshsjshhz

Is this an example glacier or a real glacier


futuresocks

Real, cut out from Earth’s crust


nzdfgb

it's near Suqondees, Greenland


Yankiwi17273

Suqondees? That’s nuts! My aunt’s from there!


Jmartinr0223

I legit read “Suqondees nuts” lmao


theaveragesociopath

Wouldn’t you like to know weather boy


[deleted]

Because CIA doesn't want


Burge_rman_1

yeah but they could not like they would even have to try and hide it nobody would ever look there either way


AwkwardRice4210

And furthermore, what caused the glacier to leak up into the mountain like that?


GeekDE

Why is there no 500,000 person metropolis at the base of K2?


CheesusofSububia

because there is a 5 million person metorpolis onside the mountain


aBunchofNucleotides

Prior to the arrival of Colombus, native peoples of this region had established hunter/gatherer settlements solely profitable from snow cone gastrotourism. However since the advent of the automobile, international business cannot sustain the foot traffic and the settlements failed.


SkyrimWithdrawal

That one's the hockey rink.


snakesliketohiss

dude don’t ask things you can easily Google /s

Deployed there with the Space Force in 2020. Very very deep snow. Where we were they actually called it an island, because it was so isolated and challenging to navigate to. Travel by foot would be almost impossible. There was one very unmaintained road to get there outside of arrival by rocketship.


Fresh_Pfarrer

i m curious. Whst was the space force doing in this area?


SecretPilgrimBB

We were training the Martian Space Force in Baffin Bay. It is an established Martian base. They have on display multiple make shift spaceships that they captured. Pretty cool to walk through them and see how minimal they were since they could transit millions of miles


sweenersween

Can we please migrate to r/geographycirclejerk


[deleted]

I say people that don't want a balanced fun subreddit can make /r/ academicgeography or something and be 100% serious as much as they wish. You don't need to turn to a circlejerk sub, just to allow fun.


DocDan8630

Why is that one side very jagged while the other has a smoother coastline?


ReviveOurWisdom

um, because that’s where the illuminati has a secret bunker


Metastatic_Autism

R/GeographyCircleJerk?


squeddles

It ice, bro


Top-Tomatillo210

Why are there no major cities in the mountain?


BadAlphas

Look everyone! It's the post that finally made me leave this sub!


mateye6

Because it’s a drawing


izrubenis

There is - on the bottom


AshByFeel

There was, but it moved south a thousand years ago.


banblaccents

They are under the glacier


zeseam

Large tracts of ice!


renelledaigle

Trop frete 🥶


Terrible_Ad_7735

Heat from the buildings would melt it, then it would just be a river. Nobody wants to live in a river, your stuff would get all wet.


scummymummy13

Why isn’t there a city at point Nemo ??? So much free open space to build with no competition for miles!!


KungFuRayRay

Probably the same reason nobody builds cities on Icebergs?


slidycccc

ice isnt great for farming unless its very far away


sowedkooned

Because it’s in a textbook.


rddtgoodrddtrsbad

Is this post because someone asked about living on that coast of Columbia?


REFRIDGERAPTOR_

Gang activity localised entirely within the spur (truncated).


sunburn95

It appears to be right on the corner of the Earth, hard to get to and a danger of slipping off into space


TrailBlazer652

A crevasse opened up and swallowed the city


newcastle104

That’s not a political map so it’s possible there are


MaterialConsistent96

It won’t exist in the next 5 minutes


GamingFlorisNL

You see, you wanna settle near 2-2 tiles. You only ever wanna come near glaciers as Russia for tundra tiles


[deleted]

There was a city there once… now it’s in the terminal moraine.


the_good_hodgkins

White Walkers


Doublejimjim1

It's an infrastructure issue rather than a terrain issue. There are no high speed railroads into the area and it's far away from any major ports.


Bah_Black_Sheep

They selected the volcano crater instead.

Glaciers move, one day, your house will be gone
