![Pastoruri Glacier and snowcapped Cordillera Blanca - Ancash Andes, Peru\n\nThe Pastoruri glacier is a cirque glacier, located in the southern part of the Cordillera Blanca, part of the Andes mountain range, in Northern Peru in the Ancash region. It is one of the few glaciers left in the tropical areas of South America.\nThe glacier is around 8 square kilometres (3.1 sq mi) in size, and around 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) long with a terrestrial snout ending.[1]The glacier is currently retreating quickly. It has lost 22% of its size and 15.5% of its ice mass in the last 30–35 years.\nThe glacier occupies an Andean peak around 5,250 metres (17,200 feet) above sea level, and so has steep, cliff like edges, with heavily crevassed areas characteristic of a cirque glacier.\nThe area and the glacier is usually covered in soft snow and is a popular area with tourists, snowboarders and ice climbers.](https://media.istockphoto.com/id/1054123928/photo/pastoruri-glacier-and-snowcapped-cordillera-blanca-ancash-andes-peru.jpg?b=1&s=612x612&w=0&k=20&c=45YAlmt7cRScOjUrpMOFuaeUhLIjWHALk4OjbBGwRcA=)
