 \n\nWhen we think of the Cascade Mountain Range\, glaciers often come to m

 ptly titled Range of Glaciers. However\, rock glaciers have not claimed th
 e same amount of fame. These glaciers elongate to broad deposits of rock a
 nd ice which\, show evidence of movement away from steep slopes in mountai
 nous terrain. Traditionally\, Rock glaciers were considered key landforms 
 and climate indicators of more continental mountain ranges\, where snowfal
 l and winter temperatures are lower than their marine counterparts. Little
  attention was had been given to rock glaciers in the marine-influenced Ca
 scade Range. Rock glaciers across Washington’s Eastern Cascades have now b
 een identified\, mapped\, and analyzed in an effort to understand how\, wh
 y\, and when they formed. Such glaciers are also being used as a tool to b
 etter understand permafrost in the Eastern Cascades\, and its significance
  as a regional water supply in a warming world. \n\nLillquist is a physica
 l geographer who has been a CWU faculty member since 1995. His first acade
 mic love is physical geography field study and\, as he grew up in Coulee C
 ity\, WA\, this likely played a big part in developing his focus.\n\n'I gr
 ew up amidst the Channeled Scablands of eastern Washington. My parent's ho
 use was situated on a late Pleistocene flood scoured basalt surface\, and 
 I grew up recreating in this unique landscape. Also\, I spent my summers r
 emoving rocks (glacial erratics) from wheat fields located behind the term
 inus of the Okanogan Lobe of the Cordilleran Icesheet\,' tells Lillquist.
 \n\nLillquist teaches physical geography\, geomorphology\, soils\, snow\, 
 airphoto analysis\, field methods\, mountain environments\, arid lands\, a
 nd graduate research. His current research is focused on environmental cha
 nge in the mountains and deserts of the western U.S.\, with an emphasis on
