This was taken from an workshop with Marc Adamus and we went exploring for different things. This is one small ice cave that actually was only a few feet tall and I had to crawl in on my hands and knees in water to fit in here but it was fun. It took me almost half an hour laying in glacier water but the exposure was very difficult

Spectacular, in EVERY way!!!Christina C. Moore September 04, 2008
Neat! I love the visual ambiguity that is created by the ice. I am a spelunker myself and so know how difficult it is for one to crawl a mile on one's belly through the freezing water. Well done! #6411189Lisa J. Boulden September 22, 2008
