Cordillera Blanca | Glaciar Pastoruri in 2018

WI_pe068_101.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 right background has become isolated from the main glacier tongue. Elevation: approx. 5000 m asl.
