During glacial stages (ice ages), periods of time dominated by colder climate, global sea level was lowered by as much as 200 meters. About 21,000 years ago, during the last glacial maximum (LGM), sea level was about 125 meters (about 410 feet) lower than it is today.
His visit was just after the peak of the Little Ice Age, a period of general glacial advance. The Nisqually Glacier reached its furthest Little Ice Age extent in 1840, 2.3 km from its 2006 location (Heliker, Johnson, and Hodge 1984).
