Being on the west coast some of these are posted and answered before I get up in the morning. Here is another.
Where is this?
What is this?
What is the name of this place?
I think it is the Franz Josef Glacier on the South Island of New Zealand.
Definitely looks like a Glacier, but not sure where?
I bet TravelGuy is correct!
TravelGuy might be correct...then again he might not be. Any other guesses?
JohnS - short on naming every glacier that Tauck visits (Patagonia tour, Alps tours, Canadian tours, Alaska tours, ...) there is no other information in the photo to make further guesses (at least not the I see). Here are a couple more shots of Franz Josef Glacier.
That said, I'll say Athabasca glacier in Canada, part of the Best of the Canadian Rockies tour. The shape of the mountains there more closely resemble your picture than Frans Josef Glacier. Here is a shot of Athabasca glacier.
Or the Abasaka(?j Glacier in Canada?
TravelGuy got it correct. Except for the spelling.
This is Athabasca Glacier on the Columbia Icefield in Alberta, Canada. The pictures were taken last year on the Tauck Canadian Rockies and Glacier National Park Tour.
I remember being at both locations and thinking this is about as icy as my train station parking lot on bad days!
I think we will need to send this one to the Judges for final decision on the winner.

Been there, done that! (;-)
Yes, many years since we took that tour, first glacier.
We'll call it a tie, but penalize both 7 points for living on the internet!
(Like the improvisational comedy show hosted by Drew Carey some years back, "Whose Line Is It Anyway," points don't count.
