Carbon Glacier

Carbon Glacier lies on the north slope of Mount Rainier in Washington State and is the source of the Carbon River. Its snout, at about 3,500 feet elevation, is the lowest-elevation glacier terminus in the contiguous United States, and the glacier holds the greatest length, at 5.7 miles, and the greatest thickness and volume of any glacier in the United States outside Alaska. It is fed by avalanches from the cliff known as Willis Wall, whose cirque is the largest in the Cascade Range at more than a mile across.
