Inter Glacier, Glacier on Mount Rainier, Washington, United States.
Inter Glacier flows northeast from 9,400 feet elevation down to its moraine at 7,000 feet, covering 0.206 square miles between Emmons and Winthrop Glaciers.
The glacier's measured area decreased from 0.78 square kilometers in 1983 to its current size of 0.53 square kilometers due to environmental changes.
The glacier functions as part of Mount Rainier's main climbing route, requiring mountaineers to demonstrate advanced glacier travel techniques and safety protocols.
Access to Inter Glacier requires a timed-entry permit for Mount Rainier National Park between July and September, along with proper mountaineering equipment.
Meltwater from Inter Glacier creates the Inter Fork of the White River, contributing to the regional water system of Mount Rainier National Park.
