New Zealand - Franz Josef Glacier

We hiked up to the face of the Franz Josef Glacier, one of the more accessible and impressive glaciers to tumble down the west slopes of the southern alps. It is winter now, of course, and the hike was a bit chilly but the glacier none less impressive. See blog https://davidkotz.org/2009/06/16/franz-josef-glacier/.
