Matanuska Glacier

Matanuska Glacier is a valley glacier in the US state of Alaska. At 27mi long by 4mi wide, it is the largest glacier accessible by car in the United States. Its terminus feeds the Matanuska River. It lies near the Glenn Highway about 100mi north-east of Anchorage. Matanuska Glacier flows about 1ft per day. Due to ablation of the lower glacier, the location of the glacier terminus changed little over the previous three decades.The glacier is the eponym of the Alaska Marine Highway ferry M/V Matanuska.
