Perito Moreno Glacier
Even though the biting arctic wind in the Southern part of Argentina was almost too much to handle, it was well worth it to be on the catamaran's deck to experience the Perito Moreno Glacier. This photo taken in 2003 was from quite a distance. The glacier's average height is 60 m which is only the part out of the water. One of the most impressive sights I have seen was witnessing a chunk of the glacier break off and crash into the water. The noise was a cross between a train wreck, a thunder crash right outside your window and a giant redwood falling. Fortunately the boat was situated a bit away from the glacier for precisely that reason.
