On ice in Fox

---

Grey and cloudy and buckets of rain overnight. Went for a half day walk on the glacier, rather than risking a heli-hike.

The walk on the glacier was amazing.

Then a brilliant night out in Fox with Natalia.

Ice climbing tomorrow!!!

Photos

Looks silver and alien in this light
Difficult to get a sense of scale in the photos, but it's huge

Look for lines of people walking on the ice
then you can see how big the glacier is. This is only the lower bit - it goes up for 13km.

The Fox river
Awesome view back from where we'd climbed on to the glacier. Lots of bits of ice in the river

Natalia, mum and friend of mum, Monica
from Mexico!

Loads of rain overnight
Should wash the glacier nicely

Walked back to the face again!!
Mum's heli flight was cancelled, so after my walk, I walked back with her to the face of the glacier

Hungry Steve on the razzle
Must check out couchsurfers.com
Also Digs (not pictured) was v friendly. But I really didn't like H Steve's wine!
