Nowhere near as good a shot, but I took this in mid 2004 from close to where Ron took his shot.  The shrinkage of this glacier in just 14 years is very evident.

Yes, the shrinkage evident from 2004 to 2018 is remarkable.

Netr, you could squeeze a lot more juice from that shot with a little post processing.  Hugh, I visited the Athabasca Glacier in Alberta in the late 1960's and again about 5 years ago.  It had an even more dramatic pullback.  Pretty soon there won't be enough ice left to make a snow cone.
