The Cambria Icefield is an icefield in the Boundary Ranges of the Coast Mountains in northwestern British Columbia, Canada, located about 35 km southeast of Stewart. The icefield sits on ancient volcanic rocks from around 190 million years ago and has experienced repeated glacier advances and retreats over the past 2,500 years. Its outlet glaciers, including Bromley Glacier, have been steadily retreating since the early 1900s due to warming temperatures. The region receives heavy precipitation from Pacific weather systems, with most falling as snow during winter months.
