Marinelli Glacier

Glaciers and Ice Formations

The Marinelli Glacier is a tidewater glacier in Alberto de Agostini National Park on Isla Grande de Tierra del Fuego, Chile. It flows from the Cordillera Darwin and calves into Ainsworth Bay, an inlet of the Almirantazgo Fjord, and its meltwater forms the headwaters of Marinelli Creek; the glacier has been retreating since at least 1960.
