Description
The water causes ripples like you're used to see them on the beach, but the mud is slightly different from white sand on the beach and the streaming water is more constant compared with the waves on the sea. The average distance between two ripples (in the middle of the picture) is about 15 cm (6 inch). I did not touch the water, but since it's originating from the glacier I guess its temperature will be close to freezing temperatures.
It's time to leave this place. That hut will certainly offer a nice vista on the glacier, but first a nice hike to reach that place! :)

Strange to se so many ripples on a lake, but so lovely to see with the strange color of the water. I could imagine how the water is cold... Brrrrrrrr !!!! Great details Jan-Carel.

You truly are the National Geography-photographer of this place. You show us the most stunning photos, with such interesting facts to go with em. I feel i learn something new each time i look at one of your uploads. And that makes you a great inspiration. I would like to formelly thank you for this past year, youve been so supportive of my photos and i have enjoyed and valued your feedback so much. Thank you Jan-Carel! I hope you get to have a fantastic year!!!! #:O)

I have seen tiny rollers only inches high that reach to the horizon out by the Marquesas. Here the questions are of thermal fetch and like neutrons the stopping distance is far greater than the containment thickness. Some upstream knows the downstream runoff and thawing rates.

I agree with Zacko. You've taken us to places we'd never have the chance to see. You're our teacher and we are your students. I love the different textures of the sediments. I know you are right about not putting your hand in the water. Not only would it be very cold, but one of the golden rules is ... leave no trace behind. Another words, look but don't touch. I can't wait to see this hut you're taking us too!! And I'll be the view is going to be spectacular.
