Newton Clark Glacier is an alpine glacier on the southeast slope of Mount Hood in the U.S. state of Oregon.[2] The glacier extends from 10,400 to 6,500 feet (3,200 to 2,000 m). The glacier lies entirely within Mount Hood Wilderness.

Between 1907 and 2004, Newton Clark Glacier lost 32% of its surface area and the glacier terminus retreated 310 metres (1,020 ft) over the same time period.[3]
