Description: Tahoma Glacier (center) descends from the summit ice cap between St. Andrews Rock and Puyallup Cleaver (left) and Tahoma Cleaver (right). The west crater is a slight depression atop Columbia Crest, the most distant summit in the photo, visible, but not obvious in the image. The east crater is shadowed. Liberty Cap and Point Success bound the ice cap on the left and right respectively. Sunset Amphitheater, at the base of Liberty Cap, is the source of South Mowich and Puyallup Glaciers (lower left). South Tahoma Glacier descends from the headwall below Point Success.
