How appropriate that a massive natural phenomenon happened yesterday, Wednesday, July 9, 2008 - on your Independence Day from Spain.  Perito Moreno located in the Los Glaciares National Park in the south west of Santa Cruz province in the Patagonia, Argentina broke and crashed into Lake Argentino this morning! 

Here is the News Report from the International Herald Tribune, Americas.

There was enormous expectation world-wide since last Friday of this rare winter occurrence.  Look at the spectacular videos of the rupture and the stunningly beautiful pictures of the world's most famous glacier, Perito Moreno!!!  Argentina's Glaciers Park is home to more than 200 enormous glaciers and is the biggest continental ice extension in the world after Antarctica.

Look at these absolutely stunning recent images of Perito Moreno, Santa Cruz Province, Patagonia, Argentina:

Look at the immense size of Perito Moreno in the above picture!  It is more than 5-times the size of Manhattan, New York City!!!   

It is one of the most important tourist attractions in the Argentine Patagonia.  The 250 km sq. ice formation, of 30 km in length, is one of 48 glaciers fed by the Southern Patagonian Ice Field located in the Andes system shared with Chile. This icefield is the world's third largest reserve of fresh water after the polar ice caps, and the Amazon Rainforest.

PS.  I've visited Argentina when I was a child.  In fact, in my recent trip to Lima, Peru (Oct '07), I was told that I have family living in Buenos Aires (Argentina's Capital).  I would definitely like to visit again!!!

The land mass of the Earth's south pole, in Antarctica, is covered by the Antarctic ice sheet. It covers an area of almost 14 million km² and contains 25-30 million km³ of ice. Around 70% of the fresh water on the Earth is held in this ice sheet.
