This was a gorgeous, most photographed scene when the glacier was in view.

Alan Klempel
I do and have a photo also

Our 1st visit in 1963 you could see the glacier, I also have a b&w photo of my 6 year old sister holding a piece of ice, about the size of your head, Dad picked it up at the stoney side of the river just for photo. Climate change perhaps ??
