This was a fascinating story...
"...a flow rate exceeding that of Niagara Falls. The water from that lake appears to have cut completely through over 3200 feet of ice to the base of the glacier."
Look at the photos...these people needs ropes! According to the story, the researchers could feel the ice vibrating at night as they were in their tents and sleeping bags. Vibrating as billions of gallons of water dropped over half a mile to the rock bed below.
