Glacier penitentes
Tall glacier penitentes mark the front face of Glacier Nef, with shadows and reflections Parque Nacional Laguna San Rafael, Aysen, Patagonia, Chile. Penitentes are tall spikes of snow or ice that occur on high-altitude glaciers in the Andes, where the dry air and the sun sublimate the ice directly into water vapor without melting it first.
