I had been eagerly anticipating the sight of the glacier, convinced that a good hike would bring it into view. After more than an hour of trekking, what I finally saw as the “glacier” made me burst into laughter. My friends were already worn out, and when I caught sight of the lake ahead, I turned back, chuckling at them. They instantly got the joke.
To be fair, the scenery along the trail was absolutely breathtaking. However, if you’re hoping to see a glacier by hiking, you might as well abandon that idea; there really isn’t one! If you truly want to experience a glacier, consider taking a helicopter tour. It will not only take you right to the glacier but also show you stunning ice caves!
Haha, that sounds like quite the prank on your friends! The lake view must have been a funny twist after hiking so long expecting a glacier. I can see why you’d laugh about the mix-up, though I bet everyone appreciated the beautiful scenery in the end. Next time, maybe set clearer expectations before the hike!
