It’s important to book your tickets in advance. The experience includes outerwear, socks, shoes, and hiking poles. If you tend to feel the cold, it’s a good idea to bring your own gloves. After arriving at the glacier by helicopter, the guide will attach special metal spikes to your shoes. Despite this, the surface can still be quite slippery, so it’s crucial to move with extreme caution.

    That sounds like an incredible experience! I didn’t realize the tour included so much gear—seems like they really thought of everything. I’d love to try this someday, though maybe on a warmer day since I hear the wind can get pretty chilly up there.
