Upsala Glacier
This glacier can only be reached by boat, since it is located on the northern side of Lago Argentino. Its main attraction, besides its dimension (much larger than the “Moreno” glacier), is the size of the blocks that fall from its front. They are enormous blocks, generally larger than the boats used to visit the area. This is probably so because its front goes deeper than the “Moreno”, and there is more water flowing under its base (it is not certain but it is believed that its front is not sitting on the bed but floating), so there is less pressure when moving. It is not common to observe a glacier rupture, but sailing among its icebergs is a fascinating experience.
