Here is all you really need to know about the watering hole: it is fed by glacier water and they haven't been able to locate the bottom. Not like they don't know where it is -obviously down- but they don't know how far down. I convinced Alex, with as few details as possible, to come with me. She was a wee bit worried. This is the before shot.
First: I jumped (took me about two minutes to conjure up the courage but I did it). Second: Alex told me she would jump right after me so I jumped. Third: Alex told me she was serious this time and she'd jump right after me so I jumped, again. Fourth: Alex jumped (took about 30 minutes and some beggin and pleading but she did it). Fifth: I jumped again. Count it people that is four whole times I jumped. My feet felt like they were being cut by razor blades by the end. And yes glacier water is as cold as it sounds, probably even colder. Yes, actually colder.
This is the aftermath. See all smiles. It must of not been to terrible. And it just got checked off the Juneau To-Do List. Check.
