Can't get enough of that Patagonia beauty, Perrito Moreno

Ummmm, hmmmm. Pretty dang amazing south-view of Perrito Moreno glacier and Cerro Moreno in the background.

BTW, glaciers are ice rivers formed by the accumulation of snow becoming compressed into ice over many years. The greenish color of the water is known as "glacial milk", formed by mineral particles suspended in the water. The glacial milk feeds the "calves" that break from the main glacier in a process known as "calving".

Very interesting . . . I didn't know that either.
