Tourist Guide

At 27 miles long by 4 miles wide, it is the largest glacier accessible by car in the United States. While taking a guided tour with my friend, we walked through hundreds of feet of vein like tunnels of ice, we ended up in a wide opening that had one of the most beautiful reflections I have ever seen/photographed in my life.
