Zigzag Glacier

Zigzag was a large, by area, glacier on the southern slope of Mt. Hood, flowing on the same ~1500-year-old volcanic debris flow substrate as Palmer Glacier. As of 2020, it is still a glacier, with crevasses and convex terminus, but lacks an accumulation zone. The glacier has lost much of its area and a good portion of its ice is now stagnant. It is only a matter of time before all of Zigzag becomes a stagnant ice mass.
