Depends what I mean with large areas? Ever been to Greenland?

Greenland is about 25% of the US excluding Alaska, the ice sheet covers 80% of that.

This means that the ice free area of Greenland is a bit larger than California. Thats the third largest state in the US. I would say that is a large area.
