Schoolroom Glacier, Mountain glacier in Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming, United States.

The glacier exhibits terminal moraines, crevasses, and a proglacial lake at an elevation of 10,400 feet in the Teton mountain range.

Scientists have documented the continuous retreat of this glacier since measurements began, indicating significant changes in the regional climate patterns over decades.

Researchers and educators frequently use this glacier as an educational site to demonstrate glacial processes and environmental changes to students and visitors.

Hikers can reach the glacier through the South Cascade Canyon trail, starting from Jenny Lake and covering approximately 12 miles of mountain terrain.

The glacier spans only 2 acres and stretches 325 feet in length, making it one of the most compact examples of a complete glacial system.
