Late Neoglacial moraines formed by the glaciers of the central Oregon Cascade Range mayhave stabilized somewhat later than those constructed by the larger glaciers at MountRainier and Mount Hood . On Three-Fingered Jack , the oldest tree cored on theNeoglacial moraine crest germinated about 1884 (Scott, 1974, p.81). Similarly, the oldesttrees growing on the left lateral moraine of Skinner Glacier , on the north flank of South Sister , germinated about 1865. This evidence indicates that the maximum lateNeoglacial advance in the Central Oregon Cascade Range probably culminated in the 1850's and1860's. A substantially older moraine, however, was formed by a post-2,300 years advance of Lewis Glacier . The moraine was not covered by a tephra erupted 2,300 to 2,000 years ago(Scott and Gardner, 1992) but does have large mountain hemlocks and whitebark pines growing onit, including one that germinated more than 500 years ago. Although they had thinnedsubstantially, most glaciers in the ... [Read More]
