Welcome to Glaciers of the American West. The purpose of this site is to collect and distribute data on the glaciers of the American West, exclusive of Alaska. Glaciers are commonly found in Washington, Oregon, California, Montana, Wyoming, and Colorado. Also, Nevada, Utah, and Idaho may lay claim to a few glaciers.

There are currently 200 known stations in the American West with over 1100 photographs taken at those stations. The project has documented stations in the Sierra Nevada, Mount Shasta, Trinity Alps, Three Sisters, the Wallowas, Mount Hood, Mount Adams, Mount Rainier, Mount Baker, and the Front Range, CO. This interactive map features photo stations. And select a station to view photo pairs. Photo galleries are currently available for the Sierra Nevada.
