The Franz Josef Glacier proved different from anything we've done so far. We got to hike in crampons which I've always wanted to try and witness huge ice falls, glacial rivers, and surges.
The glacier appears right in the middle of a thick rain forest and the contrast is remarkable.
As has been the case for much of our trip, our guide through the whole ordeal was a foreigner. Bruce is from Bristol, England - a mechanic who got tired of his boring day job and decided to try his hand at glacier guiding. No kidding...
In an ice cave. Check out the cool blue ice.
