A stunning natural landscape featuring a glacier in the foreground and majestic mountains in the background. The focal point is a deep, vibrant blue hole in the glacier, formed by the melting ice and water flow. The hole, known as a 'cirque,' is surrounded by a rugged expanse of grayish-white glacial ice and rock debris. The scene exudes a sense of raw, untamed beauty, showcasing the power of nature's forces in sculpting the terrain over time. The rocky, snow-capped peaks in the distance add to the dramatic and awe-inspiring ambiance.

📍 Skagway, Alaska Explored a glacier today! This is what is known as a "cirque" and is naturally formed. It creates a tunnel which continues downward, due to gravity, bringing sediment, rock, ice, and a gradual flow of water. It gets so small a human can't fit in it. It also can get bigger, opening it up for escape back through to the surface.
