The concept of a glacial period after the flood, which has been proposed by several creationists is examined in this article. The slowness of glacial erosion, and the scale of the effects which have been attributed to ice erosion, such as the rock basins of the Great Lakes, are not favorable to the idea of a short glacial period. The erosional effects of the currents of the flood waters can account for much of the work which has been attributed to ice erosion, and the drift can be explained by rock disintegration in place. Thus there is no need for a glacial period in creationist geology.
