Over the years I have been in a few natural ice caves of active glaciers. They are cool but also unforgiving as friends found out: http://publications.americanalpinecl...son-Ruth-Gorge

The caves on Mt. Hood: http://www.opb.org/glaciercaves/

have recently collapsed: http://www.oregonlive.com/pacific-no...ds_best_k.html

I was at one last week. Looks like yours was a deeper cut, but still an awesome experience:

Yours looks super tight!! was it in the south of iceland as well?

yea it was down by Jokurlanson lagoon. It actually seemed like everything was melting so we could only go in 3 of them. I just put a bunch of photos up in the trip report section of flyertalk.
