Nature
West Depot Glacier is a small glacier in North Cascades National Park in Washington on the north slopes of Mount Redoubt. In a high alpine setting, it lies near Depot Glacier, with a ridge to the east separating the two ice bodies. The glacier extends from about 7,400 feet down to roughly 5,900 feet. Its meltwater flows into Depot Creek and then onward to Chilliwack Lake, connecting this glacier to the broader North Cascades watershed. The place is significant as part of the park’s mountainous glacial landscape and regional drainage system.
