The Perito Moreno Glacier is one of the largest in Patagonia at 30 kilometers long, located in the Los Glaciares National Park in southwest Santa Cruz Province, Argentina. It is one of the most important tourist attractions in Argentinian Patagonia.

Perito Moreno Glacier is perhaps the region’s most famous glacier because it periodically cuts off the central southern arm (known as Brazo Rico) of Lake Argentino. The glacier advances right across the lake until it meets the opposite shoreline, and the ice tongue is “grounded” (not floating) so that it forms a natural dam. The ice dam prevents lake water from circulating from one side to the other, which in turn causes muddier and “milkier” water to concentrate in Brazo Rico. Water flows down under the glacier from the mountains, carrying the mud into the lake and helping lubricate the glacier’s downhill movement.

Because of this natural ice dam, meltwater from the south raises water levels in Brazo Rico by as much as 30 meters above the water level in Lago Argentino. The tremendous pressure ultimately causes the ice tongue to rupture catastrophically in a great natural spectacle. The last rupture occurred in March 2012, after this image was taken. The process repeats every four to five years as the glacier grows back towards the opposite shoreline. The repeated ruptures have made the glacier and lake a significant tourist attraction in the region.
