The Harvard Glacier is a large tidewater glacier in Alaska's Prince William Sound. It has a 1.5 mile wide face where it calves into College Fjord, is about 300 feet thick, and covers roughly 120,000 acres of the Chugach National Forest. It is the second largest glacier in Prince William Sound after the Columbia Glacier and is a popular destination for cruise ships touring the sound.
