Linn Glacier is a mountain glacier in the Cascade Range in Deschutes County, Oregon, lying between about 8,000 and 9,000 feet in elevation on the north slope of North Sister, an extinct shield volcano. About 800 feet (240 meters) long, the glacier is retreating and its terminus ends in a zone of rockfall.
