Río Gallegos, Argentina

Potrok Aike

Potrok Aike is a maar in the Patagonian province of Santa Cruz, Argentina, which contains a brackish lake. It has a roughly square shape and is about 3.5 km wide. The lake is fed by groundwater and occasional inflows through dry valleys, and its water levels have fluctuated over the course of its 770,000-year-long history between overflow and near desiccation.
