The High Ice
Ice in The Silver Marches
The High Ice is a desolate, monster-infested glacier north of the Anauroch desert, extended far beyond its old size by the magic of the phaerimm.
A white wilderness stretches to the edge of sight, and the only movement is snow blowing over the ice.

Overview
The High Ice lies directly north of Anauroch; to the west it gives way to the Frozen Sea, a frozen desert where part of the Narrow Sea once lay. The Netherese built mythallars to stop the glacier swallowing the Narrow Sea, their main shipping route, but these failed when their empire fell.
