After a grueling 4 hour hike in Alaska's Kenai Fjords National Park, you can reach the Harding Icefield. The word "expansive" does not begin to do this place justice. It is a vast accumulation of unmelted snow, built up over millenia and the fuel behind hundreds of glaciers. Looking off into the distance, you can see nothing but mountaintops, surrounded by an endless plain of snow. If you looked hard enough, you could probably locate Russia too.
