Cordillera Blanca | Glaciar Pastoruri in 2017

WI_pe068.jpg

This part of the tongue of Pastoruri Glacier has lost direct contact to the proglacial lake. Due to the pronounced retreat of the glacier in the previous years, the chunk of ice in the background has become isolated from the main glacier tongue. Elevation: approx. 5000 m asl.
