Description
The Rhone Glacier is located in the northern part of the Canton of Valais, Switzerland, and is the largest glacier in the Urner Alps. It is the source of the river Rhone. The glacier has receded ~1,300m during the last 120 years, leaving a track of exposed rock.

When I was young, I lived a couple of yards from the river Rhône but I never saw the glacier. Impressive but it's sad to learn it's no longer what it was not so long ago.
fantastic landscape and pic.
