You can no longer see any of the glacier from where this photo was taken

That would be because humans have warmed up the planet

Tony Walker
Lesley Parker ButlandEarth has experienced multiple warming events across different eons, with some of the most significant being the Hadean, the Neoproterozoic, the Cretaceous Hothouse, and the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM). These past warm periods were often linked to high levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide, but some, like the PETM, saw the Earth warm at a rate much faster than in industrial times.

i NEVER SAW ANY HOT POOLS THERE AND I WAS THERE INTHE 1950S

Sandy Brears
There was a creek further up the valley to the left where there was more privacy, 1968 . I think it all got washed out when the river flooded and took out the bridge
