Natural landscapes: A cave amidst the rocks
ICE CAVE AND ANGEL GLACIER, JASPER NATIONAL PARK, ALBERTA
A drive to Mount Edith Cavell, in this Canadian Rockies park, is a truly unforgettable experience. Glaciers, lakes, icebergs, waterfalls and epic peaks. All in one little area. Truly astounding. I went inside this cave; it’s cool and wet because lots of water drips from the ice. (Here’s a different view of Angel Glacier and, if you look carefully, the ice cave: http://wp.me/p2ccTX-jU.) This photo was made in 2011; since then, access to the area has been prohibited because pieces of the glacier can break off and kill people.

Wow, that cave is really cool.
I’ve been in caves like this under the glaciers in the Alps – always extraordinary places. I love the layering in this image and it shows so clearly how the idea of glaciers being pristine sheets of ice is so often untrue – they are travelators, conveyor belts of debris in slow-mo. A great shot, Frank
