Glaciers meet coast


There is a very short distance between glaciers and the coastline on the southern coast as the central mountain glacier sends spurs of ice outwards down the valleys to the sea. A hundred years ago the glaciers went all the way to the sea but they have receded a few miles now! Each glacier has a terminal lake and small icebergs break off and float in the glacial outflow.
