Splinters of ice peel off from one of the sides of the Perito Moreno glacier
as the waters of Lake Argentino open a tunnel in the glacier in a process of an
unexpected rupture during the southern hemisph
ere's winter months, near the city
of El Calafate in the Patagonian province of Santa Cruz, southern Argentina,
July 6, 208. The Perito Moreno glacier, part of the Los Glaciares National Park,
a World Heritage site, measures 250 square kilometers (97 square miles), and is
one of the few glaciers which advances instead of retreating. [Agencies]
