Goal # 42 Complete - Hike Ice Caves
As beautiful as this amazing experience was, it was the first time I was actually frightened. As I wiggled through the tight crevasses, the constant cracking of the ice was a little unnerving. All I could think was think that if the ice moved, that I would be in a terrible mess.
My guide was amazing and very patient with me and my nerves. He did his best to fill me with confidence as he explained all the work and preparation he and the crew put into the safety side of things at the Matanuska Glacier. And to be fair, they are very proactive in doing everything to ensure safety and fun. I was just a bit of a scaredy cat! Doesn't happen often, but this was one of the few times it did.
