Here's a nice little view of the terminal moraine of one arm of the
mighty Kaskawulsh Glacier and origin of Slim's River, which spends
itself in Kluane Lake. This is an approach to the vast interconnected
icefields of the Wrangell / St. Elias Icefields, ... the third
largest glaciated area remaining on Earth ... The world's largest
non-Polar icefield, and the reservoir of some 20 percent of the
world's fresh water, outside of Greenland and Antarctica.
Shot from the window of a 3 seater Helio Courier Aeroplane we
chartered from Kluane Lake to Mt. Logan.
Viewers charitable enough to visit this humble flickrstream
semi-regularly will become bored to death with rivers of Glacial ice
and seas of icefield vastness in coming weeks, as I post a surplus of
photos taken on this (for us) mind-blowing trip.

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Hidden Journeys run by the Royal Geographical Society (with IBG) in London and we'd love to have this added to the group!
The group explores the amazing landscapes underneath international flight paths and we'd love to have your photo as part of the group.
