I spent a long day exploring glacier caves and supraglacial streams on the Canwell Glacier in the Eastern Alaska Range. Had some gorgeous sights and got one last view of one of the prettiest glacier caves that will soon collapse. A little bit of insight into my thoughts and my gear on these hikes!
Here's my hiking guide and map to the Canwell Glacier and Rainbow Basin with links to an extensive photo gallery: lwpetersen.com/alaska-guide/c...
