Glacier crevasses. Crevasses in the surface of the Upper Tasman glacier. Crevasses form in glaciers as the ice cracks when the glacier moves. The stresses put on the ice as it flows down the mountain cause cracks like these to appear and disappear over time. Some crevasses can be extremely deep. The Upper Tasman glacier is located in the Aoraki/Mount Cook National Park,Southern Alps,South Island,New Zealand | |
