Lamplugh Glacier

It leads north to its 1961 terminus in Johns Hopkins Inlet, 1.4 miles (2.3 km) west of Ptarmigan Creek and 76 miles (122 km) northwest of Hoonah.

[1][2] On 28 June 2016, a 1,200-meter (3,900 ft) mountainside collapsed onto Lamplugh Glacier, causing a landslide with a volume of between 62,000,000 and 79,800,000 cubic meters (81,100,000 and 104,000,000 cu yd) that dropped 120,000,000 metric tons (132,000,000 short tons) of rock and debris onto the glacier.

The landslide left a 9-kilometer (5.6 mi) long debris field on the glacier's surface.
