Tustumena Glacier, Mountain glacier in Kenai Peninsula, Alaska.
Tustumena Glacier extends westward for 20 miles from the Harding Icefield, reaching a height of 2,539 feet above sea level.
Early Russian explorers documented the glacier while mapping the region, initially mistaking Tustumena Lake and Skilak Lake for one water body.
The Tustumena 200 Sled Dog Race occurs annually near the glacier, representing a connection between the natural landscape and regional sports.
Access to the glacier requires traveling through Glacier Creek, as no direct roads lead to the site, making boat transportation necessary.
Arctic Lake, adjacent to the glacier, experiences periodic filling and draining cycles as the ice mass shifts, leaving icebergs on sand banks.
