Description

Description

We’ll meet at the scheduled time at Bigfoot Base Camp on the northeast shore of Lake Grey. We’ll begin with a safety briefing and introduction, where your expert guide explains the route and timing. You’ll then be fitted with full technical gear: ice axe, crampons, harness, and helmet.


Fully equipped, we’ll board a Zodiac boat for a 15-minute ride to Nunatak Island on the western arm of the Grey Glacier. From there, you’ll take a 1-hour hike over safe terrain to reach the ice. Next comes the highlight: an approximately 2.5-hour glacier trek, exploring crevasses, meltwater streams and lagoons, and ice tunnels in stunning shades of white and blue. We’ll finish with a Zodiac return to Bigfoot Base Camp.
