" That is the Perito Moreno Glacier, a spectacular monster of ice that&amp;#039;s sliding slowly out of the southern Andes in Argentina. Twenty years ago, you had to take an arduous journey to see it. Today, you can watch it outside the wide-screen window of a rather luxe resort. Los Notros, located in Los Glaciares National Park deep in Patagonia, feels as though it is at the end of the world. Which it practically is. Fly into the tiny El Calafate airport, where a driver will fetch you for the hour-and-twenty-minute drive through vast, unspoiled remoteness. Los Notros consists of three wooden buildings nestled discreetly into a hillside opposite the monster, and every window in every room looks out on an awesome panorama of one of the last advancing glaciers on the planet. Those under forty-five and reasonably fit (or able to pass for it) can take the hotel&amp;#039;s guided Big Ice trek across the surface of the glacier. Crampons, harnesses, and a surprisingly brief lesson (keep your feet apart so the metal teeth strapped to your boots don&amp;#039;t hook) are provided. Go now. Guides predict that within two years, for ecological reasons, walking on these magnificent 158 square miles of ice will be forbidden. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
