This was the first time I was under a glacier and I will never forget it. I felt honored like a visitor to the moon might feel. It's as close as I'll ever get to unexplored virgin earth. For thousands of years the glacier covered this soil and only now becomes ice free as the glaciers recede. It was like being in a church designed by god. It lived, it breathed air through it, it dripped water in a symphony of tones, and little stones plopped down from the ceiling. Only a few weeks later this alcove was gone. Thank you, all that is.
