Ice calved from the glacier pushing to the North Atlantic drifts in the lagoon for up to 5 years before reaching the sea. The lagoon is only 80 years old; until the 1930s, the glacier reached the nearby highway. The glacier is now retreating at the rate of about 500 meters per year, causing the lagoon to grow.
Volcanic eruptions are memorialized in strata of ash visible in the ice.
Ice is pushed along by the glacier.
Not even tempted.
Almost there: under the bridge and to the North Atlantic.
