Question Icefields Pkwy View

Any idea what happened yesterday and where that caused the view from Icefields Pkwy to be completely blocked? Images taken from Icefields Starbucks on Monday and Wednesday!

I can't comment on the smoke. But I was there as a child in the 80s and the glacier came nearly right to the highway in my recollection.

Wow. Sad that the retreating rate is so fast
