Fairchild Glacier
Fairchild Glacier is located in the U.S. state of Washington on Mount Fairchild and Mount Carrie in the Olympic Mountains of Olympic National Park. Beginning at an elevation of about along the Baily Ridge, the glacier descends northeast and is northeast of Carrie Glacier. Like all the glaciers in Olympic National Park, Fairchild Glacier has been in a general retreat for over 100 years. The glacier is named for William R. Fairchild, who was a pilot that assisted scientific researchers in the region.
