“Purple snow capped mountains marched off in either direction, with clouds floating around their middles like fluffy belts. In a massive valley between two of the largest peaks, a ragged wall of ice rose out of the sea, filling the entire gorge. The glacier was blue and white with streaks of black, so that it looked a hedge of dirty snow left behind on a sidewalk after a snowplow had gone by, only four million times as large.”
― Rick Riordan, The Son of Neptune
Thanks so much for commenting on my photo of Dawe's Glacier in Alaska. I'd never seen a glacier before, and it was interesting to see this one. Charlie took photos of seals on the icebergs leading up to the glacier. You can see one here: https://365project.org/bigdad/365/2018-06-16
