The unusual gorge of the Ruth Glacier, located on the territory of the Denali National Wildlife Refuge, Alaska, is about sixteen kilometers long and is considered one of the most beautiful on our planet. For the reasons for this status, read on.
The territory of Denali is huge. This reserve is located in the heart of the Alaska Range. Only a few kilometers away is the highest peak of North America - the two-headed mountain McKinley. This neighborhood allows you to take almost all the snow that falls on the south-east slope of McKinley. And now about the gorge itself. It is about a kilometer in width. In its valley, snow and ice are constantly moving, coming off the slopes of the glacier. And, the speed of movement of this mass is about one meter per day!
