Grasshopper Glacier is located in Shoshone National Forest, in the US state of Wyoming on the east of the Continental Divide in the Wind River Range.

The glacier is named for grasshoppers that have been found entombed in the ice.

An estimated 650 million gallons of water were released in four days, raising the flow level of Dinwoody Creek from 200 cu ft (5.7×10−9 km3) per second to 900 cu ft (2.5×10−8 km3) per second, as recorded at a gauging station 17 mi (27 km) downstream.

Debris from the flood was deposited more than 20 mi (32 km) downstream.
