Pilot Photographs Disappearing Glaciers In The Rocky Mountains

Courtesy Garrett Fisher
Pilot and photographer Garret Fisher flew his antique plane throughout the West to document its disappearing glaciers.

With rising global temperatures, glaciers are shrinking. Garrett Fisher is a pilot and photographer, and he recently set out to capture all of the glaciers in the Rocky Mountains while flying his plane, a two-seater built in 1949. His new book Glaciers of the Rockies is the result of the effort, and he told Wyoming Public Radio’s Caroline Ballard that there is something different about seeing the world from above.
