The Seco glacier is a glacier located in the Los Glaciares National Park, Province of Santa Cruz, Argentina. It has an area of 4 km², and its outstanding point is to be in a period of retreat, so you can see the tongue of land eroded in earlier times, when drained into the Spegazzini arm of Lake Argentino. This characteristic is what gives it its name, although it is also known as Totalizador, because it is a totalizing pluvionivometer of the Instituto Nacional del Hielo Continental Patagonico; said totalizer averages between 1500 and 1800 mm of annual precipitation.

The total depth of the ice is 170 meters (558 feet).
