Description
The Great Aletsch Glacier in the Swiss Canton of Valais is the largest glacier of the alps. It has a length of about 23 km (2014).
"Just as impressive as the length is the depth of the ice. Scientists from ETH Zurich (the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology at Zurich) have measured a depth of 900 meters (2,952 ft) at the Konkordiaplatz." - http://www.pronatura-aletsch.ch/the-great-aletsch-glacier
This photo was taken from Mt. Bettmerhorn on a cloudy day. The clouds add a mysterious mood the the image. I personally prefere some clouds in a photo rather than a boring blue sky.
