Gornergletscher

Glacier table produced by a stranded iceberg. Parts of the capping ice boulder have broken off and are lying on the dust and debris covered glacier surface. Remarkably, most bits have broken off the capping ice boulder on its S side (left in the photo), possibly because the pedestal had melted back further on its S side (2004).
