ღ Moreno Glacier ღ
Rising above Lake Argentino as a rugged wall, 3 miles (4.8 km) wide and 200 feet (60 m) tall, this is one of 47 massive ice fields in Argentina's Patagonia Glaciers National Park. This grinding, groaning force of nature covers a hundred square miles (260 square km).

ღ Copahue Provincial Park ღ
One-hundred-foot (30m) tall Araucaria Trees surround a waterfall and reach for the stars in Argentina's Copahue Provincial Park. Living relics of the Jurassic period, these thousand-year-old giants stand as symbols of Patagonian tenacity in a severe and sublime landscape.

ღ Andes Mountain Waterfall ღ
