Glacier Peak Bench Mark Medallion

Glacier Peak, with its formidable elevation of 10,541 feet, is a hidden gem nestled in the Cascade Range of Washington, USA. Although not prominently visible from major population centers, Glacier Peak is a formidable force in the volcanic landscape. Once known as a smoking peak by Native Americans, its explosive past has left an indelible mark on the region. Since the end of the last ice age, this volcano has produced some of the most significant eruptions in the contiguous United States, including multiple massive explosions and lahars that shaped the surrounding landscape.

As the most remote of Washington State's five active volcanoes, Glacier Peak's rugged beauty is adorned with over a dozen glaciers that descend its flanks, lending it its evocative name. This bench mark medallion captures the essence of Glacier Peak's remote majesty and explosive history, making it a perfect keepsake for anyone who has ventured to or dreams of exploring this magnificent peak.
