Glacier Literally Upsets a Mountain in Alaska
Cordova Alaska June 25 A longtime Alaska observer Henry Walkine reports a glacier at its base near Cordova is slowly toppling a nearby mountain. Rock avalanches of 500 to 2000 tons crash into a valley as the glacier cracks the shale and creates a 400 foot by 1600 foot fault line. The phenomenon mistaken for volcanic smoke stems from the glacier’s immense pressure.
