Franz Josef Glacier- Bit of an optical illusion. The glacier looks like its right there, its actually a LONG way below the level of the edge I'm standing on

Franz Josef Glacier

Its impossible to get a grasp of how big the glacier it, Its probably hundreds of feet below the clliff I'm standing on and when helicopters fly below us and over the glarcier floor they appear so small and hard to spot at times...incredible
