http://earlesairports.com Although a spectacular landing for the F-16, Imja Glacier Lake is a catastrophe waiting to happen. The lake did not exist before 1960. It's the result of global warming, which is causing many Himalayan glaciers to melt at a rapid rate. The lake's fragile dam might burst at any time causing catastrophic flooding in Nepalese villages below. Imagery is from May 7, 2003, since updated by Google Earth.
