Keepers of the Beat: Glaciers in the North Cascades

I have put up a few recent posts on a number of Washington's glaciers:

blue-glacier-and-olympic-range-glaciers
columbia-glacier-monte-cristo-peak
alpine-lakes-glaciers-daniels-foss-ice

Jon Riedel of  North Cascades National Park is one of several geologists monitoring glaciers in Washington State. This video shows some of that work and some of that hard to reach landscape of our state. And it puts a face to those geologists that have been doing this hard detailed work.

A shout out to John Scurlock for sending me the link. John Scurlock has also played an important role in documenting our many remote glaciers.
