Stunning clouds over Lake McDonald in Glacier National Park today. Colors of orange and yellow, reflected on the lake’s surface, with a line of snow-capped mountains in between. Thanks to the National Park Service and the Glacier National Park Conservancy for providing these beautiful images.

Glacier National Park (U.S. National Park Service)

A showcase of melting glaciers, alpine meadows, carved valleys, and spectacular lakes. With over 700 miles of trails, Glacier is a paradise for adventurous visitors seeking a landscape steeped in human culture. Relive the days of old through historic chalets, lodges, and the famous Going-to-the-Sun Road.

Glacial glow.

#SilentSunday #photography #LandscapePhotography #glacier

Photo of a ragged flow of dirty light blue glacial ice, flowing in a widening band from middle right to bottom left, with a slick almost metallic gray mountainside in the foreground and a thin strip of a more distant gray mountain on the middle left edge. The top half of the image is a foggy gray sky, with a faint glow just along the top of the glacial ice.

My hand, holding up a piece of clear glacier ice, almost transparent. In the background first a lake with icebergs, then, out of focus, glacier-coveted mountains.

Memories of a new year's resolution echo and fade in to glacially slow soundscapes made from generative ambient synth and improvised guitar and flute.

The Remember Glaciers performance on a very stormy December night in Brighton is now available for download from #bandcamp here: https://rememberglaciers.bandcamp.com/track/2025-12-18-ice-core-sermersuaq-2019

I hope you enjoy the music and have a very happy new year!

Peak Glacier Extinction In The Mid-Twenty-First Century
--
https://doi.org/10.1038/s41558-025-02513-9 <-- shared paper
--
“📉 KEY FINDINGS
• At +4 °C, only ~18,000 glaciers remain worldwide by 2100
• At +1.5 °C, ~100,000 glaciers survive
• [They] identif[ed] “Peak Glacier Extinction”:
– ~2041 at +1.5 °C (~2,000 glaciers lost per year)
– ~2055 at +4 °C (~4,000 glaciers lost per year)
🏔️ THE ALPS
• At +2.7 °C, only ~110 glaciers remain by 2100.
• At +4 °C, this drops to just ~20.
Can you imagine the Alps with almost no glaciers left?...”

Langtauferer

Today, a year ago, I ventured on a dream trip I'd been researching for a long time, and which ended up being a semi-religious experience, being immersed in (and somewhat overwhelmed by) an actively changing environment, the upheaval and plethora of geological features, structures, unreal colors, layers, textures and the "wounds" exposed by the melting and disappearing glaciers... Countless waterfalls, stunning erosion features, later traversing the glacier gate and creek, descending on the ridge of a moraine almost 200m tall (marking the extent of the glacier ~175 years ago), further down walking through the cutest first generation larch forest with the biggest number of mushrooms I've ever seen... Hardly ever have I experienced Earth in such a vivid manner (Yellowstone maybe coming close, but very different)... it felt like being a witness on a journey through both geological and biological time scales, all within a single 24km hike...

Photo of the upper part of a glacial valley with large mountain peaks (some 3700+ meters) and remaining glaciers and icefields. The vivid colors are purely the result of the polarization filter used, but also nicely show the variety of rock types and minerals (rock colors vary from pale gray to orange, deep rust, black). The main arm of the glacier is curving down in the left side of the image, it's gate visible (a close up in the next image). In the front a fragment of the semi-eroded old side moraine, now slowly overgrown with grass. Creeks and waterfalls on the other side of the valley, exposing large sections of bed rock, smoothed by millennia of glacial activity. Deep blue sky.

Close up view (from a few hundred meters above) of the Langtauferer glacier gate and a beautiful river delta of the milky blueish-gray creek of another glacier (next image) which terminates higher up by now. The ice is characteristically blue, heavily crevassed and crumbling at the front. A word about scale: One of the larger detached ice fragments is ~2.5 meters tall.

Abstract looking photo of a section of the south-western edge the Gepatschferner (Austria's second largest glacier), which used to be connected here (as a major ice fall) to the Langtauferer glacier. Now only several large waterfalls are remaining, dropping over the exposed rock faces 300 meters down into the valley. The ice is pale blue with large seracs (approx. 50-100 meters thick at the edge). Some snow patches are a pale pink/orange, traces of Sahara sand...

Top down view of the Langtauferer outflow section of the valley, showing a patch work of different textures/rocks and colors from grassy slopes, talus fields in shades of gray, orange, beige, rust. The milky grey glacier creek meandering through it all from left to right. A small pool of crystal clear intensely green-blue water nearby. The entire scene feels like an abstract painting

A little glimpse from my road trip through Southern Norway end of September. My goodness, that already feels like an eternity ago and I want to get back.

#norway #glacier #landscape #mediumformat #fujigfx

A dramatic Norwegian mountain valley with a calm turquoise glacial lake reflecting steep, moss-covered slopes on both sides. Exposed dark rock faces and grey stone create a narrow U-shaped valley. A pale blue-white glacier is visible nestled high between the peaks in the background. The foreground shows a pebbly beach with scattered stones. An overcast sky with thick grey and white clouds creates a moody atmosphere over this remote, pristine wilderness landscape.

I always stay for the sunset, even on the days when I know that there won't be any light sneaking through at the very end. But I definitely will stay and freeze (and try not to jinx it) when I have a gut feeling that it just might. Sideways light in the mountains is just ethereal, these cell phone photos (no additional edits) don't do it justice, but wanted to share anyway.
