Mount Cook National Park, Canterbury, New Zealand The milky blue Hooker River winds itself down from Hooker Glacier which is one of several glaciers close to the slopes of Aoraki / Mount Cook in the Southern Alps of New Zealand. The milky blue water flowing from glacial melt is the result of finely ground rock called "rock flour" that pigments the water. photo id: JAB_20170417_7DMII_7510-2
