Blue Glacier Then & Now Project Summary

What:    A photographic project comparing the Blue Glacier as it was in 1982 with its current state in the summer of 2022.

Who:     Photographic Artist, Chip Freund, and two of his adult children

When:   Summer, 2022

Where: Olympic National Park, Forks, WA 98331

Why:    The summer I spent working alongside the Blue Glacier left an indelible mark on my heart, mind, and soul. I have longed to return to that special place before it is changed forever, and the fortieth anniversary of my time on the mountain provides the perfect opportunity.
Over the past forty years the Olympic National Park has lost 34% of its glacial mass. At the current rate, the last glacier could be completely gone by 2050. Source: National Park Service
