The scenery here is stunning. The glacier water is an incredible turquoise blue, basically glacier dust, that is made when the glaciers move down the mountains, grinding rocks as they go. The glacier then carries the rock dust down to the lake where the ice melts. The powder remains suspended in the lake water, giving it a turquoise hue. It\u2019s a shame the color can\u2019t be properly captured in the photos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-5
