Many of these glacier caves were big enough to explore, like the glacier caves on the summit of Mount Rainier. Most of the glacier caves were located near the 1980s lava dome, where hot steam and volcanic gas emissions from hidden fumaroles on the crater floor or lava dome melted holes in the young glacial ice. [19] About 7,900 feet or 2.4 km ...
This type of cave was first [dubious – discuss] formally described by Englishman Edwin Swift Balch in 1900, [1] who suggested the French term glacieres should be used for them, even though the term ice cave was then, as now, commonly used to refer to caves simply containing year-round ice. Among speleologists, ice cave is the proper English ...

The Sandy Glacier Caves are a system of glacier caves within the ice of Sandy Glacier on Mount Hood, Oregon. They are thought to be the largest glacier caves in the lower 48 states of the United States. [1] Surveys done in 2011 and 2012 have measured the system at over 1 mile in length or about 7,000 feet.
