Lillian Glacier is a tiny glacier located in the Olympic Mountains in Olympic National Park. The body of ice resides in an-east facing cirque located just east of McCartney Peak at an elevation ranging from 6,500 feet (2,000 m) down to 6,200 ft (1,900 m).[2] Meltwater from the glacier flows into several tarns located in the cirque and the water leaves via the Lillian River.[2]
