The Eriste North glacier was located on the northern slope of the massif, above the Millaris lakes, between the peaks of Gran Eriste and Eriste North. Its meltwater, like that from the Llardana Glacier, flows down towards the Gistaín Valley.
During the Little Ice Age, it must have covered around 15 hectares. The glacier was classified as residual in 2012, when it was divided into two units, occupying an area of 0.2 hectares in 2018. Its total extinction was recorded in 2022.
