Last week we were in glacier country on the West Coast and on going into the information centre we saw this notice, above, on the main noticeboard as you go in - various articles on the foolishness of some tourist a few years ago who were too near the glacier and got hit by falling ice - WE WERE THERE and our guide was the one who rescued the 2 injured people and saved another 6 lives by telling them to keep away just before the accident. The two hurt ignored him and are lucky to be alive. this is a picture of how the entrance (or exit) looks today
- the roof just crashed in. We were delayed several hours at the time whilst our guide attended the injured but then we had an adrenaline filled walk up the glacier - unforgettable. Didn't do it this time as it would never match up.
