Susten Glacier is a prominent glacier located in the Swiss Alps, specifically in the Uri and Bernese Oberland regions. It is part of the larger Susten Pass area, which is known for its stunning landscapes and outdoor activities. The glacier is fed by snow and ice from surrounding peaks, contributing to its significant size and flow. The glacier is an important indicator of climate change, as it has been retreating over the years due to rising temperatures. This retreat affects local ecosystems and water resources, making it a subject of study for scientists monitoring the impacts of global warming on glaciers and mountain environments.
