  Merging rivers in Denali, Alaska
by karenincalifornia
 
 

Favorite thing: Our bus driver pointed this sight out to us on the ride into the park. As you may know, glacially-fed rivers are "dirty" looking because of all the silt carried with it, while spring-fed rivers are much cleaner looking. In this picture, you can see two rivers coming together, one glacially-fed, and one spring-fed.
