Great image.

A cross-section through the Stanley Glacier, Yoho National Park, British Columbia, Canada; taken from within a cave.

Your photo of glacier contact with rock, shown to the right is fascinating. Thanks for posting such a lovely high-resolution shot. It raises several questions:

• The floor of the ice cave appears to be ice/snow with some rock debris interspersed - is this correct?
• There appear to be distinctive bands of fine debris starting at 40 cm up and continuing periodically even to the top of the photo. Is that impression consistent with your first hand observation?
• The dark 20-cm band of ice at the bottom appears on close inspection to be fairly transparent. When you look at it closely it appears the rock surface under the ice layer is relatively rough (as opposed to scoured smooth). Is that impression consistent with your first hand observation?

  I don't think that you can

If you would be so kind, please reply here. I'll check back periodically.

Hazelia

Dear Smith609, I am coordinating the publication of a new textbook of zoology (in Italian) and I wonder if I can publish your picture of Hazelia. In the case, you will be credited for it. Thank you in advance for your attention. Best Loriano
