RETREAT OF ALASKAN GLACIERS

During the month of August 1886, Professor c. Frederick Wright with tyo companions and two Indian assistants camped just below the Muir glacier and observ ed it's motions for 29 days. This party the first to make prolonged visit to the spot
 The Muir glacier at that time presented precpitous ice front at the waters edge mile and half wide and from 250 to 400 feet high while the water in the inlet inn medatey below 700 feet deep that the ice front from the bottom of the inlet the top of the glacier fully 1000 feet thick The ice front did not however, tend in direct line across the inlet but shaped like the letter "V' with the apex downward.
 Masses of ice of greater less extent were almost continually falling off into the water with booming sound like that of
 Recent measurements show that the movement of the glacier rapid than had been suspected for the ice in the middle of the glacier the front moving at a rate of 72 feet day.
 Professor Wright also collected evidence which was amply confirmed by subsequent visitors to show that the ice front of Muir glacier had retreated twenty twenty five miles within comparatively short period and that probably when Vancouvers party visited the region y the whole of Glacier bay into which Muir inlet eptes occupied by glacier ce twas also evident that there had not been time the ice retreated for the vegeta tion to get firm hold on the uncovered area
 Photographs taken few years later showed that the front at that time fully one mile farther up In less than twenty years the retreat had been fully five miles.
 The cause of this dimnution was doubtless due to local and temporary climate changes especially those af- fectng the snow faA .+=5<f"
 Observations in other parts of Alaska bear similar witness to the retreat of Alaskan glaciers.
