Hubert Glacier is located on the south side of Mount Olympus in the Olympic Mountains and Olympic National Park.{{Cite map|publisher=TopoQwest (United States Geological Survey Maps)|title=Mount Olympus.

Starting from this highpoint of the glacier at {{convert|6500|ft|m|-2}}, it flows northward until it meets the glacial ice located in the cirque at about {{convert|5600|ft|m|-2|abbr=on}}. The glacier changes direction and flows west to its terminus at about {{convert|5000|ft|m|-2|abbr=on}}.
