The latitude for Alaskan glaciers: 62.7, –150.5 "There is no question that on a global basis we're seeing a warming that goes back several centuries. There are 2,000 glaciers that descend to below 1,500 metres in Alaska and about 99 per cent of them are retreating" taken from WIKIPEDIA (2008) That's the best I could find on receeding glaciers...there are lots of geologists (?) who probably would beg to differ. Hope that helps.
very, very beautiful... do you know if these glaciers are receeding as fast as most of the others in the world? And what lattitude is this? pretty cold for mid summer. wildnt like to live there.
OMG Amazing!!! Utterly beautiful!!
