ROB ROY GLACIER

What used to be a threatening glacial force now looks like a snow capped hill. But hey, that’s the global trend now right? Benefit first and later hand over the direction of nature to nature whilst we absentmindedly sip water that we have stolen from the clouds…

We saw multiple small avalanches unfolding whilst underneath the Rob Roy Glacier that I managed to capture on camera. They may look small but the reality is grim: we are losing ice much faster than it is replaced and the retreat in my lifetime is a hard pill to swallow.

Though distressing this track is an important pilgrimage to make. One that will both humble you and remind you the resilience of our world despite us. And though your nipples may fall off, a swim in some glacial water is mandatory.
