Mount Columbia and the Columbia Glacier
by David Rippin, University of York, York, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
In 2017, I was fortunate enough to spend six months in Canada working on a project on the Columbia Icefield in the Rockies. This work involved carrying out several flights over the icefield, and during one of these, I captured this image of the amazing Mount Columbia and the Columbia Glacier with its stunning proglacial lake.
