2014 National Geographic Photo Contest, Week 8

“Rainier Snow Cave”. Being inside a large snow cave feels almost like a different world - perhaps akin to someplace that humans aren't supposed to venture. I found this snow cave while hiking around Mt Rainier. Since I didn't have alternate footwear, I decided to go in barefoot with my camera. The water was freezing cold and there was a good breeze blowing through the cave. I took my shots as quickly as I could. Once I got out, I had to sun myself on some nearby rocks for almost an hour to warm back up. When I went back and looked at what I got, it was definitely worth it! Photo location: Mt Rainier National Park, Washington. (Photo and caption by David Swindler/National Geographic Photo Contest)
