Franz Josef

this is a very rare site - no, i'm not talking about the glacier, i'm talking about the sun shining! apparently we were very lucky to have a beautiful, blue-sky day for our hike on the glacier.
it was awesome climbing up and over the mountain of ice with crevasses, tunnels, and undulations!
walking with crampons was a bit of an art but great fun. rob, rosie, and i spent 4 hrs on Franz Josef glacier.
