Herbert Glacier

Last updated

Herbert Glacier is located in the Tongass National Forest near Juneau, Alaska in the United States. A six-mile trail, reachable from Glacier Highway, provides walking and bike access closer to the glacier via a former horse trail, [1] and provides information on plant life following glacial recession. [2] As the glacier has receded, mining claims on the Herbert River have increased. [3]
