Check the pictures and info on Alaskan Glaciers (ex: Mendenhal) or all glaciers for that matter. In the 70's and 80's the cruise ships used to pull up next to the calving glaciers. Now many glaciers are gone from the coast and the ships have to disenbark and you take a nice little hike to see them. Which has lead to some nice cottage industries giving tours--capitalism alive and well. Sarah Palin must be melting them some how
