The glacier is around 8 square kilometers (3.1 sq mi) in size, and around 4 kilometers (2.5 mi) long with a terrestrial snout ending. The glacier is currently retreating quickly. It has lost 22% of its size and 15.5% of its ice mass in the last 30–35 years. The glacier occupies an Andean peak around 5,250 meters (17,200 feet) above sea level, and so has steep, cliff like edges, with heavily crevassed areas characteristic of a cirque glacier. The area and the glacier are usually covered in soft snow and is a popular area with tourists, snowboarders and ice climbers.
