Logan Glacier is a glacier in the U.S. state of Alaska and territory of Yukon, Canada. It heads down the northern side of the Mount Logan massif in the Yukon, flowing northwest across the Canada-United States boundary to form the headwaters of the Chitina River. It was named for its origin on the slopes of, and proximity to, Mount Logan.[1]
