'''Icicle Mountain''' is a [[stage]] in [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]. Unveiled at [[E3]] 2001, It is a stage that constantly moves up or down (mostly up), therefore making it a sidescroller. It moves infinitely up/down, although the speed varies. It has platforms that are flat as well as diagonal. There are ice blocks that can be destroyed with one hit, both large and small ones. Many sections of platforms are slippery as they are made of ice. There are also platforms that drop if one stands on them too long. If playing as [[Pikachu (SSBM)|Pikachu]] or [[Pichu (SSBM)|Pichu]], once using [[Thunder]], it is instantly rendered useless, due to the fact that floors are constantly generated, permanently blocking the move.  Due to its random nature and high vertical scrolling speed (rendering slow jumpers at a severe disadvantage), Icicle Mountain is disliked by some players and generally banned in tournaments.

In Adventure Mode, the mountain path is dominated by [[Freezie]]-pushing [[Topi]]s and [[Polar Bear]]s that force the stage to "jump" upward when they hop. Players can jump along the top of the stage to force their way higher to quickly face-off against the Ice Climber team, or climb higher to reach the two platform summit.
