Klondike Glacier is in Shoshone National Forest, in the U.S. state of Wyoming on the east of the Continental Divide in the Wind River Range.[1] Klondike Glacier is in the Fitzpatrick Wilderness, and descends from the northeastern slopes of Pedestal Peak. The glacier flows east into a proglacial lake and shares a glacial margin with Grasshopper Glacier to the north.
