Repeat photos Hohlicht glacier, location 1: Sequential representation

This comparison shows the large area of dead ice (width approx. 300-350m) at the foot of the Hohlicht Glacier. Dead ice front has retreated in the last three years and lost ice sheet thickness. At the back you can see that the glacier stream has found a new path. This is probably due to the melting of the Hohlicht Glacier.
