Description

It is often difficult to estimate the scale of the ice of this glacier. So we get a little bit closer and I zoom in on a part of yesterday's Ice on the move 6 with a factor 10. You can distinguish the grass in front of it. From the left to the right the distance is about 15 meters. You can see the marble like structures in the ice, and the rocks lying on the glacier, moving to the place where all rocks are collected when the ice has molten and the glacier continues as a rivulet.

I love the hoodoos, here in ice. Moving in gives an opportunity to view great power in conflict with it's base.

Good thing it's moving slow...allows time for you to get out of the way of progress? (LOL)...bad ole dirty ice...it's approaching the Fall season here when the leaves begin to change colors and Mighty Winter will soon raise his nasty cold head...that's OK...I have a free flu shot coming if I need it.
