Reid Glacier is an 11 mile long retreating glacier in the U.S. state of Alaska. It trends north into Reid Inlet in Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, two miles south of Glacier Bay and 72 miles northwest of Hoonah, in the Hoonah-Angoon Census Area, terminating at sea level. It was named by members of the Harriman Alaska Expedition for Harry Fielding Reid; a separate glacier of the same name lies on Mount Hood in Oregon.
