Sheridan Glacier 2

(Seen only by those of us who went on the rafting trip
out of Cordova.  A panoramic view.

Sheridan Glacier -- as well as Sherman Glacier and others
nearby -- were named by a couple of lieutenants surveying the
area shortly after the Civil War -- and U.S. purchase of
Alaska.  A little brown-nosing, you think?)
