I went hiking on a glacier!! I got to ride in a helicopter up to the surface of the glacier. Then we did three hours of hiking on the glacier — through ice caves, over cracks and streams, and past massive walls of ice. It was amazing! The surface of the glacier was mostly like the crushed ice of a snow cone, loose and crunchy where air permeated the surface of the ice. But underneath that was the incredible blue ice, which we could see in the pools and caves and cracks. That blue was breathtaking. On the helicopter ride back to town, the pilot made a wide turn and the helicopter turned sideways!! This experience was in my lifetime top ten, for sure!
