Fair Glacier, Mountain glacier at Apache Peak in Roosevelt National Forest, Colorado, United States
Fair Glacier extends 0.20 miles in length and width, featuring steep slopes ranging from 40 to 45 degrees along its upper section.
Photographic documentation of Fair Glacier in 1910 provided early insights into its characteristics and position within the Indian Peaks mountain range.
The glacier serves as a destination for mountaineers and climbers who follow Gerry Roach's guidebook describing it as the principal mountaineering route on Apache.
Access requires navigation from Long Lake Trailhead through Brainard Lake Recreational Area, passing Lake Isabelle and continuing toward Mirror and Crater Lakes.
A notable crevasse at 12,200 feet elevation marks the glacier's center, requiring careful navigation during summer climbing expeditions.
