White Chuck Cinder Cone is a cinder cone near Glacier Peak in Snohomish County of Washington, USA. Located near the headwaters of the White Chuck River,[2] its existence was first reported by Everett Houghland in 1934.[3] Its elevation is 6,020 ft (1,835 m).[1]

Based on the amount of glacial erosion on the cinder cone, it is probably between 2,000 and 17,000 years old.[4]
