[5][6] Walter H. Walton, an editor of the Glacier, also edited the rival Hood River News and the Better Fruit publication.
[13] The Glacier's property was acquired by the Hood River News, who placed the paper's archive in the county library for public reference.
[14] Author Doris J. Smith incorporated clippings from the Glacier, along with the Dalles Optimist and the Mosier Bulletin, into a publication of the journal of Mary Evans, Wasco County pioneer.
[15][16] In 2013, The Dalles Chronicle reported plans to digitize early issues of the Glacier, along with selections from its own archives and that of the Maupin Times.
Funding came from the National Endowment for Humanities' National Digital Newspaper Program (NDNP), and the Glacier's coverage of Japanese immigration to the Columbia River Gorge and the birth of Hood River County's fruit industry influenced its selection as a top priority Oregon paper.
