Le glacier Perito Moreno (Patagonie, Argentine) a près de 200 km2 de surface, son front de glace au débouché sur le Lago Argentino dépasse 30 m de hauteur. Des blocs se détachent constamment et tombent dans le lac mais il arrive que l'avancée du front bloque l'écoulement des eaux, jusqu'à ce qu'une brutale débâcle la rétablisse.
