Guyot Glacier

Guyot Glacier is a major glacier in southern Alaska at the eastern end of the Robinson Mountains. About 34 miles long and 8 miles wide, it begins north of Yaga Peak and flows east-southeast to Icy Bay, passing south of the Guyot Hills and lying northwest of Yakutat. Along its northeastern side, it borders Yahtse Glacier. The New York Times expedition named it in 1886 for Arnold Henry Guyot. Its great size and its setting near Icy Bay make it one of the notable ice masses in this rugged coastal region.
