Mount Rainier National Park, Washington. Lower part of Nisqually Glacier as seen from station 5 . The upper portion of the glacier is 7 feet (2 meters) higher than in 1959 (photo vfm00026), and since then the glacier has thickened 22 feet (7 meters) lower down and 24 feet (7 meters) toward the bottom of the glacier. The broad bulge of thickening is visible in midglacier in its center portion. The nunatak has been topped by flowing ice. Dead ice downstream has receded considerably since 1959, but now previously stagnant ice in midchannel is thickened and has been incorporated into the advancing terminus. September 8, 1962. Figure 24, U.S. Geological Survey Professional paper 631.

Lower part of Nisqually Glacier as seen from station 5. With respect to its 1962 condition (photo vfm00027), the glacier has gained 3 feet (1 meter) in thickness in the upper area and lost 5 feet (2 meters) lower down. However, toward the bottom, the thickness has increased 34 feet (10 meters). The preliminary result now available for the 1966 survey shows that 1965 was a peak year at the bottom of the glacier. The vigorous terminal reach and snout of the glacier have completely covered or incorporated all vestiges of stagnant ice. The nunatak is almost entirely engulfed. Mount Rainier National Park, Washington. August 30, 1965. Figure 25, U.S. Geological Survey Professional paper 631.
