Los Glaciers National Park

by Waxbag - last update: Aug 16, 2007

The Moreno Glacier and Magestic Fitz Roy Mountains

Calving Moreno Glacier
Los Glacier National Park is one of the most beautiful off all the parks in this world. Within its 600,000 hectacre boundries is the third largest continental ice sheet, Argentina's largest lake, one of the most popular hiking trails in the world, and what some consider the "Eigth Wonder of the Natural World".

The floral and fauna here add the amazing geology of the region. There are pleanty of condor, green parots, wood peckers, rhea, guanaco, eagle, and even flamingo. The patagonian forest is just wicked looking and feeling. The narly wind wrecked trees seem to barely hold on to the siol and are covered in fuzzy green and grey lichen.
The bergs in Lago Argenitina are numerous and large.
