Princeton Glacier

Princeton Glacier is a glacier on Alaska’s Kenai Peninsula within the Sargent Icefield. Its lower end lies a little more than a mile from Nassau Fjord and Prince William Sound. In 1909, George Perkins of the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey gave it its name in honor of Princeton University. The glacier is one of the named glaciers associated with the Sargent Icefield landscape, linking the region’s geography with early twentieth-century surveying and place-naming.
