A large jagged iceberg with vivid blue glacial ice sits amid a dense field of brash ice and smaller ice chunks floating in Columbia Bay, Prince William Sound, Alaska. The crevassed white terminus of the Columbia Glacier stretches across the full width of the background. Snow-capped peaks of the Chugach Mountains rise behind the glacier under a partly cloudy blue sky. July, Prince William Sound, Alaska.

Columbia Bay in July, choked with calved ice from the Columbia Glacier. One of the largest tidewater glaciers in North America, and one of the fastest retreating.

Catching a Jökulhlaup in action is an extraordinary event to witness. I flew over this lake every day for a month waiting for this moment. Watch till the end to see why.

The fleeting glimpse of Kyes Peak, framed by a 90-degree opening, was all the vista I craved from this vantage point.
