Milk Lake Glacier is located in the Glacier Peak Wilderness in the U.S. state of Washington. The glacier is within Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest and a little over 3 mi (4.8 km) northwest of Glacier Peak.[2] Milk Lake Glacier disappeared sometime between 1984 and 1997 and by 2005, Milk Lake was situated where the glacier had once been.[3][4]
