Isabelle Glacier, Alpine glacier in Indian Peaks Wilderness, Colorado, United States.
The glacier sits at 12,700 feet elevation, featuring permanent ice fields and surrounding rocky terrain shaped by centuries of glacial movement.
The formation began during the last Ice Age, carving deep valleys and creating geological features that define the current Indian Peaks landscape.
Native American tribes regarded this area as sacred ground, using the surrounding valleys for seasonal hunting and gathering through generations.
Visitors need to obtain permits from the Forest Service between June and September when the trail conditions allow safe glacier access.
The glacier functions as the primary water source for South Saint Vrain Creek, supporting the regional watershed throughout the year.
