## Caption

This #glacial #river in Landmannalaugar is a popular hiking spot in #Iceland. Many such glacial rivers look like the #roots of a #plant, with several offshoots connecting to a larger “trunk.” Typically occurring in mountainous regions, these rivers can be tens of miles long and thousands of feet deep.
