The beautiful nature of the Glaciers National Park is uncommon with its colorful contrasts. This place was declared a Natural World Heritage by UNESCO, because among the animals there are some species that are in danger of extinction, now being conserved in the park. Standing out are the Viedma and Argentino Lakes, the channels, fjords and bays that surround the landscapes of incomparable beauty. The Moreno Glacier, which penetrates the lake with a mass of ice more than 60 meters high, lets off tremendous chunks of ice into the Témpanos Channel.

Perito Moreno Glaciar
The Perito Moreno Glacier is crossing the narrow stretch of water in front of it, to separate the Rico Branch and the South Branch from the rest of the Argentino Lake. Little by little it has been accumulating pressure behind the walls of the glacier for the last three or four years, producing an impressive overturn, and then returns to start the cycle again. Nevertheless the glacier hasn't advanced since 1988, so some scientists are doubting the theory of the cycles, meanwhile others are blaming the earth's global warming. At these lakes we can see the level that these waters once reached. |
