The pyrenees have a lot of small glaciers that have stopped moving or haven't been studied since becoming very small. For example, in the Monte Perdido masif there were many more glaciers, like the Grieta, the La cascade, the Marboré, the Paillas (two glaciers), and the Astazou. As of today these glaciers still have glacier snow and some, like the Astazou or the Paillas, that are the biggest, could be considered glaciers, but they haven't been studied in recent years.
