Every now and then there is a rumbling & squeaking noise as the glacier settles a bit & a powder covering of snow falls from the surrounding mountain. Everyone holds their breath while this happens in case the whole glacier is about to fall on our heads. I love the way the glacier looks like marble at the lake's edge where new layers of snow have fallen over the previous layer of ice & scree.
