Ice Caves

I took a trip to the Ice Caves on Sunday. The Ice Caves fromed when the end if the Mt Erebus Glacier broke off and the large crack at the top is covered with blowing snow that made the cave.


This cave was recently discovered this season and it was deamed safe for tours until the ice road melts away.


This is the roof of the cave. If you dont use your flash you get this nice blue.



Here I am inside the cave. But if you use your flash it turns out white.


Here are some ice crystals that have formed.
