雪龙，纯洁幻境，冰冻牛头怪。这是艾迪·卡塔亚和他的爬山搭档Brent McGregor给他们发现的新岩洞起的名字。随着桑迪冰川俄勒冈州的胡德山，多亏上面的温河与山下的暖空气，在冰川中形成了洞穴和隧道。在TEDYouth大会上，艾迪·卡塔亚带我们走进那冰块发出蓝绿色光芒，艺术品从岩顶掉落的神秘世界。

我的冰川岩发现经过

Glacier caves, formed by rivers of melting ice inside Mount Hood’s Sandy Glacier, constantly shift and offer breathtaking sights like glowing blue ceilings and buried artifacts. Three unexplored caves, discovered just an hour from Portland, provided new frontiers that felt as thrilling as space exploration. Each year, new tunnels appear, waterfalls shift, and ancient seeds or bird feathers fall from the ceiling, preserved for decades in the ice. Remarkable extremophile microbes thrive in these extreme conditions, offering clues about life in hostile environments—even beyond Earth.
