A Glacial Lake Outburst Flood is when ice-dammed lakes release large amounts of water. The basin known as Suicide Basin used to be filled with ice. But as local glaciers retreat, the ice is replaced with water. So Suicide Basin is now a bowl that fills with water every year and eventually the pressure in the basin is able to overcome the Mendenhall Glacier, leading to all, or some, of the water to release into the Mendenhall Lake and Mendenhall River.
