Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox glacier Harrison Glacier is a glacier located in the US state of Montana in Glacier National Park.[1] Situated on a southeast‐facing ridge immediately south of Mount Jackson, it is the largest remaining glacier in Glacier National Park, estimated in 2005 to have an area of Шаблон:Convert.[2][3] Though many experts have stated that all the glaciers in Glacier National Park may disappear by the year 2030,[3] Harrison Glacier lost only 9 percent of its surface area in the 40-year period between 1966 and 2005 and will likely still exist well beyond 2030.[4] Compared to many of the vanishing glaciers in Glacier National Park, Harrison Glacier's accumulation zone is at a much higher altitude (approximately Шаблон:Convert), which has allowed it to maintain some equilibrium in its glacier mass balance.[4] Comparisons of images of the glacier taken in 1913 with images from 2009 indicate that the glacier has experienced thinning and retreat.[5]
