While cruising in Alaskan waters, I discovered rivers of solid ice, sometimes thousands of feet thick! I call them “glaciers” and arranged for a helicopter ride at once for a closer examination.

Rivers of Ice
I really should have been an arctic explorer. I think I rather look the part. 
My mighty steed ready to carry me to the river of ice. 
Glacial overboots. Very fashion-forward, everyone is wearing on the glacier. 
The soles of the boots with the little metal studs that bite into the ice. 
Glacial run-off. The intensity of the blue ice is incredible. It really is that bright blue, no photoshopping or anything! 
The Heart of Alaska. 
The river of ice meets the sea.
