    I’m planning to do some high altitude alpine peaks the next 4 days, after reading this, might just gonup there in my swimming shorts. For traversing the glaciers I’d probably go and buy some flippers. There gonna be streams all over the glacier surface.

    The glaciers will probably loose around 3% of their surface area again this year. 🙁
