Cameron Glaciers

Glaciers and Ice Formations

The Cameron Glaciers are several ice bodies on Mount Cameron in the Olympic Mountains within Olympic National Park, sitting in four north to northeast-facing cirques at elevations from about 6,700 feet down to just under 6,000 feet. The ice bodies are separated by aretes, with the westernmost two roughly equal in size and the easternmost the smallest, and their meltwater feeds Cameron Creek to the north.
