North Cascades Glaciers by Size updated

North Cascades Glaciers by Size updated

In 1971, Austin Post et al published a USGS paper "Inventory of Glaciers in the North Cascades", listing the largest glaciers that were at the time 1 sq. km. or larger. I had some fun putting together a map of these glaciers, posted below. I'd sure be interesting if someone did a new inventory to see how much these glaciers have shrunk in the last 38 yrs. This version includes Rainier and Olympics for comparison. Sorry,the type is getting small on this one!
