Default Summer glacier skiing?

That 'snowfield' is serviced by a chairlift, which would be difficult to put
in a moving glacier. It isn't moving, and it isn't made of blue ice.

Does someone beside you think it's a glacier?

Of course, the best skiing is in Chile or New Zealand, but if you don't
want to travel that far in August, Mt Hood in Oregon has a great
snowfield to ski on (no it's not a glacier, but then, it's not moving
either). Spend the nite at Timberline Lodge, which is a relic from the
past in itself.

Timberline, Mt. Hood, Oregon the upper portion of the ski area is in the
Palmer Glacier fields and being a glacier is moving.
