Mendenhall caves b hr-.jpg

OK looking at the previous photo, at the far end of that tunnel opened up into a large room that went down about 100 feet then a frozen cascading river goes on beyond that. These are formed as the glacier goes over a cliff or large section of bed rock and detaches from the ground as it moves down hill. These are dangerous and do collapse but they are so beautiful to explore.
