Global warming comes to Jasper National Park?
circled area shows the bit that fell off. Turns out this post from yesterday was correct, but named the wrong glacier. From CTV:
Parks Canada said a large amount of glacial ice fell from the side of Mt. Edith Cavell and into a pond at the base of the mountain early Friday morning.
The pond overflowed and flooded the upper parking lots, outhouses, trails, roads and a picnic area.
Parks Canada says “unusual weather conditions have resulted in several uncommon natural events in Jasper this summer.”
Including this week's mudslide, apparently.
