Type Mountain glacier
Location Mount Anderson, Olympic National Park, Jefferson County, Washington, USA
Coordinates [1]

Eel Glacier is a glacier located to the north of Mount Anderson in a cirque. The northward-facing glacier starts at about 6,600 feet (2,000 m) in elevation, with an arm extending up to 7,100 ft (2,200 m).[2] As the glacier flows north, it descends in elevation to about 5,200 ft (1,600 m) at its terminus. Meltwater from the glacier gives rise to Silt Creek, which flows through the Olympic Mountains and Olympic National Park.[2]
