- Name of glaicer: Carbon Glacier
- Location of glacier: Mount Ranier
- Type of glacier: Mountain glacier
- How it has changed in size over time: In 1970s, growing. Currently, shrinking.
This information came from the National Snow and Ice Data Center, and from the National Park Service site on Mount Rainier. I also saw a video on Discovery Streaming about glaciers called Glaciers: Movers and Shapers. Here's the video:
