Lucozade Challenge: Glacier Climbing Post 14: Glacier Climbing

The first few days we were here we walked across mountain tops, scaled stone walls and reached the summit of 3600m.

None of that however, has involved climbing glaciers. Today, that will change!



We set out after breakfast to get to the ice (which moves by the way!) as quickly as possible, and when we arrive - we're not disappointed...







Once we find a safe (read: not *that* dangerous) part of the glacier to practice our technique on, we each take it in turns to learn new skills in climbing, ice-axing and crevasse-lowering...
