I can't imagine how cold it must feel for sure the weather is below zero in that place, it's very beautiful it must be a good experience to be able to cross the cave, at the moment I thought that the hand was a person who had frozen 😅
Actually IN the cave it is always around 0 degree, summer or winter. In winter it can get much colder outside the cave. ;) It didn't feel too cold in the cave since there is no wind :)
Isn't it dangerous to go inside the cave? Ice might crack and fall 😅
Some time ago there was an accident like this in a cave in Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego and yesterday another accident in a frozen cave in El Bolsón, Rio Negro (Argentina), both with fatalities. Very sad :(.
That's why I'm afraid to enter caves with glaciers... Prone to accidents..
Yes, I think I would settle for seeing it from the outside 😅.
This Ice cave is regularly controlled and the ice movement is checked. But yeah, maybe it is never completely safe. In this cave you can only go with a tour guide. ;)
How beautiful this glacier is, nature is so wonderful. Undoubtedly the best time to go is summer, it's cold but bearable ❤️.
In winter it is very beautiful too, a lot of fresh snow but for people who don't like the cold, summer is definitely better :D
I've never been to a glacier nor anywhere near one! That ice cave looks just awesome, this is the perfect destination for the adventurous soul! Nice photos @bananapalms.

This is absolutely one of the places that I would love to visit.

I don't know if I would go skiing but I would definitely enjoy the cave!
