Abstract

Explorations made during the summers of 1926-31 indicated the existence of at least seven small glaciers in the Teton Range of northwestern Wyoming. These occur on the east slope of the range, within the rugged area now comprising Grand Teton National Park, at altitudes between 10,000 and 11,5000 feet. Herein is given the setting, description, and history of these glaciers.
