Just a hypothetical that caught my interest; What would happen if a river coming down, say, a mountain, traveled far enough to one of the poles that it hits a glacier? Would its momentum just disperse and turn into a pond until the water finds somewhere else to go? Would the water carve into the glacier, like those pictures of ice tunnels you can find on google?

man that sounds cool like an ice water slide. the river would probably slow down then spread out and maybe make some melt puddles. could even carve little paths like nature’s art. it’s wild to think how rivers change stuff you know.
