In Parque Nacional Queulat there is a natural phenomenon known as Ventisquero Colgante (the hanging glacier).
The glacier only can extend down to where the valley it occupies ends at the top of a cliff. Every so often a part of the glacier that hangs over the precipice (hey! quit pushing!) breaks off and large chunks of glacial ice fall hundreds of feet.

of glacial melt.






Wouldn’t want to kayak it.

This is an online foto (not sure whose)
and we might assume it was taken
with better equipment too?

I had to buy this wine!
The Ventisquero Colgante is an iconic
natural wonder in Chile.
