Company Glacier is in Wenatchee National Forest in the U.S. state of Washington, on the north slopes of Bonanza Peak, the tallest non-volcanic peak in the Cascade Range.[2] Company Glacier descends from 9,200 to 6,500 ft (2,800 to 2,000 m) with several main chutes converging into the main glacier below the 7,800-foot (2,400 m) level.[3] Company Glacier was used as the approach route when Bonanza Peak was first climbed in 1937.[2]
