Minor Glacier

Minor Glacier lies in northwestern Wyoming within Bridger-Teton National Forest and the Bridger Wilderness, on the west side of the Continental Divide in the northern Wind River Range. Resting below the west flank of Gannett Peak, the state’s highest mountain, it occupies a dramatic alpine setting in Wyoming’s loftiest terrain. The glacier belongs to the largest grouping of glaciers in the American Rocky Mountains, helping make this part of the Wind River Range one of the region’s most distinctly glaciated landscapes.
