Glacier Perito Moreno is one of only three glaciers in the world that is growing rather than retreating. For reasons yet to be fully understood by glaciologists, the glacier not only grows at an average rate of two meters (almost 7 feet) per day, but also loses a proportional amount of mass each day, ensuring that the equilibrium of the glacier’s mass & size remains consistent year round. It is considered to be the 8th wonder of the world. #visitargentina @visitargentina (at El Calafate Tierra de Glaciares) https://www.instagram.com/charlottelittlewolf/p/BqdKnjElImo/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1d87ppbzhurb4 -- source link
