I always wondered where Fox's Glacier mints came from, lol. Some absolutely stunning scenery there. It's one of my dreams to hike around a glacier, I shall bear this one in mind when I can afford to go on holiday. You have truely had a once in a lifetime experience there. Faye x : ) by Fazel

Great pics. Hubby would enjoy this - he has his own crampons anyway for the lakes in winter. by marymoose99
