• Glacier crevasses are dynamic, ever-changing natural features. Each year, some crevasses shift or transform, while new ones emerge, offering different challenges. The photos you see of crevasses on our website or social media may not exactly represent what you'll encounter during your tour, as the landscape can vary from visit to visit. This ever-evolving environment ensures that every ice climbing experience is unique and special for our guests.
• This tour involves roughly 1-1.5 hours of total hiking. The terrain is very flat yet rocky and is relatively easy for a person of average fitness.
• Photo packages may sometimes take more or less than 14 days to edit. This is just our average turnaround time.
