It makes the glacier look much farther away from that marker than it really is. Having said that, I was just at the Athabasca Glacier this weekend, and it is astounding how fast it's melting. The distance between the 1982 and 1992 markers is almost the same as the distance between the parking lot (approx. 1948) and the 1982 marker. That's a huge difference in recent times. The distance from the 1992 marker to where the glacier is today is also quite astounding. Every time I visit that glacier, I'm amazed by the rate of melt/recession in recent decades. Hopefully, we can create change soon enough that there will be something more than a puddle in the mountains left for me to show my children some day.
