"A meandering drive west from the town of El Calafate takes you through the scenic environs of Argentine Patagonia, with its milky pale glacial lake waters, fjords and mountains. Upon entering Los Glaciares National Park, a monster soon appears, as if you came upon an enormous movie set wherein the stage designer was the full force of mother nature deployed on a time scale of eons."
"Witnessing the spectacle of The Perito Moreno Glacier is to be in the presence of something powerful and immense, alive even, and wrought with brutal dynamism. The glacier roars as a beast would, with its calving and creaking. Its colors and contrasts are fierce and captivating. It emerges from the shadows all at once and then can't be unseen, everything falling under its domain."
