One of our adventures on the South Island, climbing the Franz Josef Glacier- the staircase we're climbing on is actually made of ice.... that the guides carve out with a pick axe every day.
The ice gets a lot cleaner once we go further up, plus we get our very own pick axes to help with the journey (that's me in the bottom left).
I have not included one of the many pictures of us standing in crevasses waiting for our guide to figure out how to get us off the glacier (it grows/changes a meter a day, so no tour ever follows the exact same path and each tour is a new adventure!)
