• The Mission

  Since 2007, GlacierWorks has been undertaking expeditions to document the current state of the glaciers, retracing the steps of pioneering mountain photographers in order to capture new images that precisely match the early photographic records.

• The Glaciers

  The Greater Himalaya is home to the greatest concentration of subpolar glaciers in the world. But, slowly, they have begun to disappear.

• The Rivers

  From the Indus to the Brahmaputra, many of Asia’s major river systems rely on the glaciers for a portion of their perennial water supply.

• The People

  The GlacierWorks team is currently in the field, collecting new and valuable information about the people who rely on the glaciers for their perennial water supply.

• The Team

  Covering hundreds of miles of the Himalayan Region and hundreds of years of exploration, our team fuses the past and the present into one illuminating whole.

The Mighty Himalayan Glaciers are Vanishing.

The snow and ice stored within this resplendent arc of nearly 50,000 high-altitude glaciers are vital sources of water for the major rivers of Asia. GlacierWorks is a non-profit organization that vividly illustrates the changes to Himalayan glaciers through art, science, and adventure.
