Walking atop Taku Glacier, 2012

Taku Glacier, Alaska

One of the most memorable experiences of my travels was a helicopter ride to a glacier that included landing ON the glacier, walking around, and taking some photographs.

The texture of the glacier, both from the air above, and as we walked on the surface, was incredible to see. For years I had heard about the color “glacier blue” but this was the first time I truly appreciated it.

At one point we looked in the distance and realized the small dots we could see were passengers from another helicopter walking around. We felt so small, the world felt vast, amazing… and awe inspiring.

Can you see the people in the panorama shot? Enjoying their stroll atop a glacier?
