They have "snow coaches" to drive you out onto the ice--directly onto the glacier. You can leave the coach and do a bit of a walk about if you're feeling daring. There's also a hotel on the other side of the road that's designed to freeze solid during the winter months. They've built expansion seams into the buildng at various junctures so that the structure won't crack about in the process of freezing and thawing. Pretty amazing stuff, that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5838960770272105688.post-74586780164197304422007-08-01T21:33:00.000-07:002007-08-01T21:33:00.000-07:00I can imagine.
