Carter Glaciers

The Carter Glaciers are in Glacier National Park in the U.S. state of Montana. The glaciers are situated along a ridge immediately to the east of the Continental Divide, mainly below an unnamed peak which rises to 9164 ft. The glaciers cover an area of approximately 50 acre at an elevation between 8500 ft and 7200 ft above sea level. The Carter Glaciers consist of between three and four separate small glacial remnants (glacierets), none of which meet the threshold of 25 acre often cited as being the minimum size to qualify as an active glacier.
