Enormous glaciar - Perrito Merino

The Perrito Moreno glaciar is one of the only advancing glaciars in the world and it is utterly HUGE - 30km's in length and 5km's wide. We took a boat to get up close and personal and then took a seat to watch mother nature's show - huge chunks of ice come away from the glaciar everyday and make a deafening sound as they fall into the lake below. To top it off we had a stunningly beautiful day - apparently most of the time the mountain peaks are covered in clouds, however someone was looking out for us on this day!
