Glacier trekking in Argentina

In photographer Nahid Bhadelia's own words, "The ice trekking tour on this glacier has to be one of the most surreal experiences of my life. A lot of the North hemisphere glaciers are shrinking but Perito Moreno is one of the most stable glaciers in the world. Being on this body of ice makes you realize how ephemeral and ever changing even the most solid appearing elements of our surroundings are."

    I definitely knew this at one point, but does anyone know why are the glaciers in Argentina such a vivid blue?

      The ice of the glacier absorbs every other color of the spectrum except blue so that's why they appear blue. Source
