Moreno Glacier, Patagonia

Moreno Glacier, Patagonia
Moreno Glacier is one of the most spectacular sights in Glaciers National Park in southern Argentina. The glacier blocks the outlet of the River Rico into Lake Argentino in Patagonia. Icebergs continually calve off the glacier into the lake, along a front some 5 km (3 mi) wide. The glacier itself is 80 m (260 ft) high.
