Nature
Knud Rasmussen Glacier lies in far northwestern Greenland in Avannaata, north of Thule Air Base. It is one of four large glaciers that feed Wolstenholme Fjord, a system sometimes called the world’s largest ice machine. More than 3 kilometres long and about 900 metres wide, it joins Salisbury Glacier, Chamberlin Glacier, and Harald Moltke Glacier in supplying ice to the fjord. Together these glaciers form one of the most notable glacial landscapes in this remote part of Greenland.
