Snow Creek Glacier

Snow Creek Glacier occupied Little Annapurna in Washington’s Stuart Range, within the Alpine Lakes Wilderness of Wenatchee National Forest and the Enchantment Lakes region. It was not one large continuous glacier but a group of small glacial remnants, or glacierets, including one that ended at Isolation Lake. It has since disappeared, placing it within the wider pattern of vanishing small mountain glaciers in the Cascades and underscoring the environmental changes affecting the region’s high country.
