Northernmost glacier of the Alps. Have visited him a few years ago and unfortunately has to say that he mitlerweile has become extremely small .... Hopefully he will stay with us for a few years.

The glacier is mainly fed by the winter avalanches and lies between steep mountain slopes for most of the time, which is why it still exists. Unfortunately, it will be smaller from year to year and will probably be completely gone in a few years.
