With all the ice and cold, it felt just like I was back home again! I was an Ice Explorer for the morning and got to take a helicopter to the glacier (it is no longer safe to walk) and then went for a 3 hour hike. The pictures will never capture how incredible the glacier was, but I tried. I spent the afternoon warming up in the hot pools and competed in killer pool and limbo competitions at night to try and win a bungee jump. Unfortunately, I didn't win so no bungee for me.

Our guide carving out the stairs
Every day, each guide that goes through the glacier has to carve out the stairs because the glacier moves so much on a daily basis!
