[edit] Summary

Description

Image altered to locate glaciers on top of Mount Kilimanjaro. NASA image from 2004. Most areas that are not identified are either small remnant glaciers, or snowfields. In the northern icefields, both Credner and Drygalski glaciers were once outflow glaciers of the icefield but may longer exist, per se. Much information to help locate which glacier is which was taken from the USGS report and a 1980 NASA image on page G61 of this report
