Rivers and glaciers

They swam through freezing rivers and used zip wires to cross others. They crossed glaciers at Campo del Heilo, the Southern Patagonian Ice field…

“It was the most wonderful sight I´d ever seen,” said Maria.

“At first it was flat but, after only 10 minutes, cracks began to appear which became larger and larger, turning into great big crevasses over 40 metres deep ... We jumped over the crevasses, helping to catch each other. I was leaping over a large crevasse but as my crampon landed on the near vertical slope, my ankle gave way and I began to slide. I kicked out my other leg against the opposite ice wall to stop myself from sliding and Fred, my team mate, grabbed the hood of my jacket before I slid any further.

I got up immediately and carried on crevasse hopping.”
