Tourists look at the rupture of the leading edge of the Perito
Moreno glacier as the waters of Lake Argentino open a tunnel in the
glacier, widening it until its collapse in a massive explosion of
ice fragments and water, near the city of El Calafate in the
Patagonian privince of Santa Cruz, southern Argentina, March 13,
2006. The Perito Moreno glacier, part of the Los Glaciares National
Park, a World Heritage site, is unusual in that it is still growing
forward at the accelerated rate of between 30 and 60 cm per day.
