RobinsonThomas W. SissonDarin D. SwinneyData SeriesDS-549Reston, VirginiaU.S. Geological Surveyhttp://pubs.usgs.gov/ds/549The Topo1970_glacier_limits feature class was created to provide a vector delineation of the glacier limits in 1970. Older glacier boundaries compiled from USGS topographic sheets: Chinook Pass, Mowich Lake, Mt. Rainier East, Mt. Rainier West, Sunrise; 1971. Toposheets where created from aerial photography collected in 1970 and field checked in 1971. The most recent glacier boundaries drawn from LiDAR collected during the summers of 2007 and 2008 by Watershed Sciences, Inc.The Topo1970_glacier_limits feature class was created to provide a vector delineation of the glacier limits in 1970.en1970ground conditionNone planned-121.56709546.95412846.792152-121.882228585302.443701609036.9366125183058.0741405200676.484520GlacierMount RainiervolumesWashington StateWashingtonPacific NorthwestMount Rainiernone(650)329-5322jrobins@usgs.govmailing addressMenlo ParkCA94025USA345 Middlefield RoadMS 910(650)329-5203GeologistU.S. Geological SurveyJoel E.
