A sky full of scars - Rhône Glacier, Switzerland
by Janosch Beer, ETH Zurich - Laboratory of Hydraulics, Hydrology and Glaciology, Zurich, Switzerland
Rhône Glacier field work, conducting geophysical measurements during one of the hottest days we've ever experienced up there. The dust and dirt on the surface makes the glacier almost appear like solid rock with patches of water on it. The crevasses and ponds on the surface evoke the image of scars, emphasizing the vulnerability of this place.
