Nature
Llewellyn Glacier is a major glacier of the Juneau Icefield in British Columbia and Alaska, and the second-largest glacier within that icefield. As one of the region’s great ice masses, it is an important natural feature in northwestern North America. In recent years, it has drawn attention for rapid retreat, highlighted on June 6, 2018, when a kilometre-sized section of its narrow tongue broke off and crashed into Atlin Lake. The glacier is significant both for its size within the Juneau Icefield and as a clear, visible example of ongoing glacial change in the region.
