Mendenhall Glacier Ice Cave, Juneau, Alaska-Image #2942

Dec 16, 2015

A frozen Mendenhall Lake made for easy access two winters ago to the now world famous Mendenhall ice caves. All of Juneau turned out for a visit. This particular ice cave has since collapsed. In this image my friend Stephanie is catching the sunlight shining into the cave through a moulin. A moulin is a glacier mill created by surface melt water in summer. This image illustrates the month of September in my 2016 Juneau, Alaska calendar. Thanks for visiting – Camera: Nikon D800, Lens: Nikkor 24-120mm F/4, ISO 400, digital capture – © Mark Kelley
