Malaspina Glacier, Alaska, USA

The tongue of the Malaspina Glacier, the largest glacier in Alaska, fills most of this image. The Malaspina lies west of Yakutat Bay and covers 3,880 square kilometers (1,500 square miles). The terrain in this region appears a mustard yellow, while the majestic Malaspina Glacier appears blue-white, surrounded by reddish areas, which are the soil and stones the glacier has carried from along its path.
