Alaska Glaciers. Skilak glacier, showing lateral and subglacial lakes. This ice-dammed lake is located in an embayment between Skilak glacier and an unnamed glacier in the Kenai Mountains. An exposed lake can be seen on the left; the radial pattern of crevasses in the center of the glacier suggests that this ice is raised and lowered by alternate filling and draining of a subglacial lake. Water from this lake created a devastating flood in the Kenai River valley in January 1969. Cook Inlet region, Alaska. On sheet 3 of U.S. Geological Survey. Hydrologic investigations. Atlas HA-455. 1971.

Vertical air photo of South Cascade Glacier and basin. The thin veneer of snow remaining on the glacier at this time is rapidly disappearing. The transient accumulation-area ratio is 0.40, which can be compared with the values of approximately 0.30 on September 30, 1966, and 0.15 on October 16, 1966, the end of the balance year. Although little snow remains on the glacier, accumulation patterns are still obvious in this photo. The strong influence of the prevailing western storm wind is indicated by drift patterns and by the predominance of snow remaining on the western side of the glacier (north to top of photo). Chelan and Skagit Counties, Washington. September 22, 1966. (Aerial view) Published as figure 7 in...
