Franz Josef Glacier

In April 2007, a large pile of stones with subrounded shapes lay amongst the crevasses (normal debris on the glacier is angular). It originated from a subglacial outburst flood which broke through the icefall in 2003. By 2008, most of it had already reached the snout, 1 km from the source.
