Middle Cascade Glacier is in Wenatchee National Forest in the U.S. state of Washington and is to the north of Spider Mountain and east of Mount Formidable.[2] Middle Cascade Glacier has a significant icefall that is thinning and may eventually separate the upper section of the glacier from the lower. Middle Cascade Glacier retreated {{convert|260|m|abbr=on}} between 1979 and 2005.[3] The smaller Spider Glacier is just southeast of Middle Cascade Glacier.
