It's plenty studied, but definitely very under-monitored.

Woah. Didn't realize it gets that snowy up there this early, especially considering the lac of precipitation so far.

This must not have been taken recently because it certainly does not look like this up there right now. There are of course year-round glaciers and snowfields, but not this much snow!

How does it look so trafficked? Is it “readily” accessible? I’ve been going up to the Glacier Peak Wilderness area but had no idea that many people go all the way up.

The texture of the snow comes from it melting in the sun. It forms runnels (the lines in the back) on steep terrain, and cups (the pockets in the foreground) on less steep terrain.

Isn’t that the volcano most likely to blow?
