Miche Wabun Glacier is a glacier remnant (glacieret) located in the U.S. state of Montana in the northeastern region of Glacier National Park (U.S.). The glacieret is situated in a cirque to the east of Goat Haunt Mountain.[2] Miche Wabun Glacier was measured in 2009 to have retreated to less than 25 acres (0.10 km2) in area, considered to be a minimal size to qualify as being considered an active glacier.[3]
