Summary
A September 8, 2003, southwest-looking photograph taken from adjacent to the south margin of Lamplugh Glacier. The 2003 photograph shows that the terminus of Lamplugh Glacier is more than a third of a mile forward of its 1941 position. Additionally, glacial sediment on the bedrock ridge in the foreground indicates that Lamplugh Glacier had advanced beyond the photo point at some time prior to the photo being taken, probably in the late-1960s. Note the isolated vegetation.
