The Himalayas article gives the impression that these mountains contain the world's most glacial ice outside of Greenland and Antarctica. This is not true. Canada contains around 65% of the entire worlds mountain glacial ice except as noted above. However, if new satellite data trumps this, I would like to know if that is the case.
