Lyman Beecher Sperry (1841-1923), physician, lecturer, and author, was the discoverer of Sperry Glacier. Sperry Glacier, Sperry Glacier Basin, and Sperry Chalets are named in his honor. During the summers of 1894-1906, Dr. Sperry camped, climbed, and explored the Montana Rockies, particularly in the area set aside by Congress in 1910 as Glacier National Park. This photograph, taken in 1904 at some unspecified location in the Park area, was by G.H. Dean, student of Dr. Sperry's, who accompanied him on the 1904 trip. Photo no. 6274 from the archives of Glacier National Park, courtesy of U.S. National Park Service. Published as Figure 11, U.S. Geological Survey Professional Paper 1180.

Glacier National Park, Montana. Sperry Glacier. This earliest available photograph showing nearly the entire glacier was presumably taken from a point on the Continental Divide about 1 mile south of Hidden Lake. Surface details of the glacier are obscured by a light snowfall, but its extent then is clearly evident. The end of the horse trail and the beginning of the foot trail to the glacier are just beyond the pass in the upper central part of the photograph. Lakes that are shown on recent maps formed as the glacier retreated. Photo by F. Matthes, October 18, 1901. Photo no. 7166 from Glacier National Park files, courtesy of U.S. National Park Service. Figure 14, U.S. Geological Survey Professional paper 1180.
