Patagonian Glaciers & Ice Fields
The Southern Patagonian Ice Field represents the world's second-largest contiguous extrapolar ice mass, spanning the Andes between Chile and Argentina. This region holds one of the planet's most significant freshwater reserves, feeding an extensive network of tidewater and mountain glaciers. The list features major formations within the Magallanes region, including the massive Campo de Hielo Patagónico Sur and specialized glaciers like Sarmiento de Gamboa and Los Perros, which exhibit diverse glaciological features from ice falls to moraine-dammed lakes.
