Glaciar Martial, Glacier in Ushuaia, Argentina.
The Martial Glacier extends across the Andes Mountains, creating a natural barrier that rises above the city and the Beagle Channel.
The glacier formed during the last ice age and has been gradually retreating, leaving behind a series of moraines that mark its previous positions.
Local residents maintain winter sports traditions at the glacier, with skiing facilities operating during the snow season from June to September.
A chairlift operates from the base station, located 7 kilometers from downtown Ushuaia, providing access to the glacier viewing area.
The glacier serves as a natural water reservoir for Ushuaia, supplying fresh water through a network of streams that flow down the mountain.
