Located on the Richardson Highway at milepost {{convert|28.7|mi|km|0|abbr=on}} east of Valdez, it was listed as a National Natural Landmark in 1968. The Worthington Glacier State Recreation Site, a {{convert|113|acre|km2|abbr=on|adj=on}} roadside park operated by the state of Alaska, offers a view of the glacier, and it is acclaimed as one of the remaining U.S. glaciers that is accessible by paved highway.[1] Like most of Alaska’s glaciers, this glacier has been steadily retreating for the last 150 years, but not as dramatically as many others.
