Podcasts about glaciers

In our latest podcast episode, 22-year-old Maria Luisa Sánchez talks about her experiences on the former Triglav Glacier in Slovenia. As part of the “Young Glacier Voices” project, she visited Slovenia's highest mountain alongside other young adults – a cross-border experience in every sense of the word. Dijana Čataković Biagi organised the camp and tells us more about the background to the project. Young people also attended a glacier camp in the Ötztal valley in Tyrol this summer – Félicie Weiss from the Girls on Ice* Austria association explains why only girls took part.

During the last ice age, America's coastlines and waterways looked much different than they do today. When glaciers melted, coasts and shorelines were inundated, burying early human settlements underwater. This is where underwater archeology comes in. Donning scuba gear and trowels, researchers are finding remarkably well-preserved artifacts that tell us more about what life was like in the early Americas.Joining Flora to talk about this is reporter Reid Frazier, who accompanied an underwater archeology team on an excursion in Lake Erie. Then, underwater archeologist Jessi Halligan talks about her discoveries at a key site in Florida.GUESTS:Reid Frazier is an energy reporter for The Allegheny Front in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.Dr. Jessi Halligan is an underwater archeologist and associate professor at Texas A&M in College Station, Texas.

Science commentator Laurie Winkless looks at three new studies from the science world. 

Shae looks into the research about whether recycling and other small household environmental actions mean that people are diverted from larger political actions.We hear from presenters around 3CR about the latest climate news - the tragedy in Nepal, the expansion of gas mining and datacentres in the Northern Territory, and a chat with climate researcher David Spratt.

The devastating August 2026 flash floods in Nepal and Tibet were triggered in part by a glacial collapse, a phenomenon likely to become more frequent as the Earth continues to rapidly warm due to human caused climate change. We discuss why climate change is making mountains and glaciers more unstable, and how early warning systems and less development in floodplains could prevent future loss of life.  Also, as global sea temperatures rise due to climate change, coral reefs around the world are struggling through mass bleaching events. But new research has identified nearly one-third of the world's coral reefs as climate-resilient “super reefs”, three times more than was previously estimated.  And inspired by the popular Fat Bear Week, researchers with the Marmot Project launched Fat Marmot Week this year to raise awareness of these large ground squirrels, and drum up support for sustaining their decades-long research project. We talk about the winner of Fat Marmot Week, and other creative ways the team is fundraising and spreading a love of yellow-bellied marmots. Learn more about your ad choices.

August 2026 was the world's joint hottest month ever recorded, pushing global temperatures back above 1.5 degrees Celsius over pre-industrial levels. In Italy, glaciologists say that heat is accelerating the retreat of Alpine glaciers, with one Lombardy glacier losing 31 metres this year and some monitoring delayed because the melt season hasn't yet ended.

We're recapping Joanna's incredible father-daughter trip to Alaska and breaking down how she made such an epic trip surprisingly budget-friendly! We talk about flying from St. Louis to Anchorage for just 17,500 points each way, using Hyatt points for the hotel, renting a car and exploring on our own, and deciding which experiences were actually worth the splurge. From trekking and rappelling on Matanuska Glacier to hiking in Girdwood, exploring Whittier, spotting beluga whales, picking wild blueberries in Hatcher Pass, cruising Kenai Fjords National Park, and finally finding a moose at sunset, this trip was packed with bucket-list moments. Joanna also shares why experiencing Alaska with her dad made this one of the most meaningful trips she's ever taken—and why she came home already wanting to go back.Mentioned in this episode:Comfrt.com 15% OFFNova Alaska ToursMatanuska Glacier Youtube ReviewWhittier Marine ChartersBorealis Custom Fishing ExperienceHatcher Pass ATVFind Us On Online:Mary Ellen | JoFacebook GroupAffiliate Links:Relief Band - Use code WONDERLAND for 25% off!Rakuten- Mary Ellen (Get 5000 AMEX or Bilt POINTS)Rakuten- Joanna (Get 5000 AMEX or Bilt POINTS)Mary Ellen's Fetch (Use code MARYELLEN!)Joanna's Fetch (Use code JOANNALYNN)Seats.AeroBEST PRICE on CardPointers subscription!Halara (use code "Wonderland" for 10% off)Our Favorite Credit CardsWe may receive a small commission when you choose to use any of our links to purchase your products or apply for your cards

Abstract: According to current scientific understanding, our universe began in an inconceivable explosion of both space and time. And yet the laws that govern it took immediate effect, eventually governing the formation of galaxies and stars, the orbits of the planets, and even the colonization of sterile rock by lichens. If all this isn't cause for wonder, it's difficult to imagine what would be. Happily, the restored gospel promises us an unlimited future of learning, exploration, and, well, admiration. The post Glaciers, Plant Succession, and the Sheer Wonder of It All first appeared on The Interpreter Foundation.

Glaciologist Twila Moon studies Earth's ice, the glaciers and ice sheets that have built up over millennia, but that are now disappearing much more rapidly. In this episode, Twila and Sarah talk about the visceral sensory experience of standing next to a living glacier, and what it's like to watch something that once felt permanent, something that has animated her heart and mind for decades, vanish within her lifetime. They also discuss learning to sit with climate grief, and Twila shares why taking action in the face of overwhelming ecological disaster can actually generate hope.

The scale of the disaster in the Himalayas is becoming clearer a day after catastrophic flooding tore through parts of Nepal and Tibet. Scientists believe the disaster was likely triggered by the collapse of a glacier, unleashing a torrent of water, mud and debris that swept away entire communities.

What can glaciers teach us about our changing planet, and why should people thousands of miles away from the world's great ice fields care?In this episode of The Intelligence Report Podcast, Dylan Welch sits down with glacier researcher, journalist, and explorer Grace Cordsen to discuss her work across the Arctic and Antarctic and what she has witnessed firsthand in some of the planet's most remote environments.Grace shares her journey from joining an Arctic expedition as a young researcher to working aboard expedition vessels across both polar regions. She discusses researching the visual history of the Arctic, witnessing glaciers retreat over time, the importance of understanding the communities and cultures connected to these environments, and how exploration can transform the way we think about conservation.One of the most powerful lessons from Grace's work is also one of the simplest: seeing environmental change can change the way we understand it. She describes returning to the same glaciers and comparing them with historical records from decades earlier revealing landscapes that have changed dramatically within a relatively short period of time. The conversation also explores the role of scientists, journalists, educators, travelers, and everyday people in protecting glaciers and the broader cryosphere. As Grace explains, one of the first things anyone can do is learn about these environments, understand how they are changing, and find meaningful ways to support their protection. Topics include: Arctic and Antarctic exploration, glacier retreat, climate communication, polar research, conservation, Indigenous and local communities, sustainable expedition travel, and how storytelling can help people understand, and protect, the world's frozen environments.Support the show

In 1987, Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage formed a team known as the Mega Powers. The original run only lasted about 16 months, but became the go-to example for the pro wrestling superteam. Similarly, there have been plenty of times in music when people from established bands or solo careers team up to form a supergroup. Some of these groups last quite a while, some come and go in the blink of an eye. On this episode, Andrew and returning guest Brady Trappett (Voices of Wrestling) team up to play a selection of supergroups. Artists played include the Highwaymen, Broken Bells, SuperHeavy, Run the Jewels, Them Crooked Vultures, Isles & Glaciers, Wild Flag, and many more. Listen to this episode before it inevitably...

For 52 years, citizen-scientists have documented Mt. Shasta’s melting glaciers as the planet warms from climate change. They’ve taken a series of photographs over decades that shows these glaciers shrinking.   These citizen-scientists say they’re hoping to reduce “environmental amnesia” by presenting this visual evidence of climate change.   Washington journalist and author of “The Earth Said Remember Me,” Jason Dove Mark, joins us to discuss his experience on Mt. Shasta, and its broader implications.  

Is an Alaska cruise worth the hype? Dayna returns from a family sailing aboard Royal Caribbean's newly amplified Ovation of the Seas and shares everything you need to know before planning your own Alaska adventure. We cover the stunning train ride from Anchorage to Seward, sailing past Hubbard Glacier, whale watching in Juneau, meeting sled dogs and puppies in Skagway, searching for bears in Icy Strait Point and exploring Alaska's small port towns. Dayna also shares her honest thoughts on Ovation of the Seas, the best activities for families, whether you really need a balcony cabin, which excursions she would book next time and why you should prepare to spend more than expected on excursions, souvenirs and king crab. Whether you are considering a one-way Alaska cruise, comparing Royal Caribbean with Disney Cruise Line or wondering whether Alaska is a good destination for kids, this episode is packed with firsthand advice, practical planning tips and plenty of travel inspiration.

On Oceania's highest mountain, the last remaining tropical glaciers are melting at an unprecedented rate. Recent research shows that they have lost the bulk of their ice within just a few decades. Scientists describe this as an irretrievable loss. - Am höchsten Berg Ozeaniens schmelzen die letzten tropischen Gletscher in einem noch nie dagewesenen Tempo. Aktuelle Forschungen belegen: In wenigen Jahrzehnten haben sie den Großteil ihres Eises eingebüßt. Wissenschaftler sprechen von einem unwiederbringlichen Verlust.

Warmer ocean water is leading to faster melting of Antarctic glaciers.

What if your next trip to Iceland could do more than create unforgettable memories? In this episode, I sit down with Anne Peters and geologist Johannes Marteinn from Katla UNESCO Global Geopark to explore one of the most fascinating experiences I’ve ever had in Iceland: science-backed expeditions where everyday travelers help collect real scientific data. The best part? You don’t need any scientific experience. If you can hike, take photos, or learn to use simple equipment, you can contribute to research that’s helping scientists better understand Iceland’s rapidly changing landscapes. In this episode What “citizen science” really means How anyone can participate in real scientific research in Iceland My experience collecting glacier, dead ice, and coastline data Why Katla Geopark is one of Iceland’s most geologically diverse regions How scientists monitor glaciers, dead ice, and coastal erosion What happens to the data after each expedition Why these small-group adventures are designed with sustainability in mind https://youtu.be/VxqVdGRYnak Some surprising facts you’ll learn about Iceland Katla UNESCO Global Geopark covers nearly 10% of Iceland. Parts of Iceland’s South Coast are eroding by an average of about five meters every year. During one storm in 2022, scientists measured up to 100 meters (328 feet) of coastline disappearing in a single event. Participants receive reports, updates showing how their measurements contribute to ongoing research, and a certification of completion.  Save 10% on your own Citizen Scientist Expedition in Iceland If you’d like to experience one of these science-backed expeditions yourself, you can save 10% by using my code JEWELLS when booking through Katla UNESCO Global Geopark.

After 21 Disney cruises, Kelly came home from the Disney Wonder calling her Alaska sailing a contender for her favorite ever. She is back on the show to break down what a Disney Cruise Line trip to Alaska is really like with an 18-person group: three glaciers in one week, a ship that felt surprisingly empty in peak June, and the excursion strategy that kept everyone together. In this episode: The Castaway Club booking trick for getting a large group onto the same Alaska excursion Three glaciers, three ways: the Glacier Explorer, the Skagway hiker's-train hike, and a Mendenhall canoe-and-hike adventure Real excursion pricing, from a 106-dollar train hike to a 358-dollar canoe day to roughly 900 dollars for helicopter dog-sledding Why the Disney Wonder felt nearly empty in mid-June, and what that meant on board How Disney Cruise Line handled a wheat allergy for a graduating senior, down to a from-scratch chocolate lava cake Who an Alaska sailing is genuinely for, and who should book a warm-weather cruise instead "I love this cruise.

In this episode of Academia et al, Zeinab El Khateeb talks to Professor Nicola Walshe about a career that has moved from studying glaciers to shaping climate change and sustainability education.Professor Walshe reflects on the currents that carried her from science into teaching, from classroom inquiry into education research, and from individual practice into collaborative work with schools, policymakers and colleagues. She also offers advice for early career researchers on following your passions, building partnerships and taking care of yourself while doing work that matters.More about Professor Nicola Walshe and her work: https://www.ucl.ac.uk/ioe/news/2026/jun/glaciers-classrooms-academia-et-alMore IOE Insights podcasts: https://uclioe.info/podcastUCL Institute of Education: https://ucl.ac.uk/ioe

Rendez-vous dans l'extrême nord du Pakistan, dans les montagnes du Gilgit-Baltistan. Située aux confins de la Chine et de l'Afghanistan, cette région isolée abrite certains des plus hauts sommets du monde et des milliers de glaciers. Ses paysages à couper le souffle accueillent chaque année des centaines de milliers de visiteurs. Pourtant, la région est en première ligne face au changement climatique et voit ses glaciers fondre à un rythme accéléré, avec des conséquences déjà visibles : inondations soudaines, glissements de terrain et ruptures de lacs glaciaires se multiplient. Pourtant essentiels à l'économie locale, au tourisme et à l'irrigation des cultures, les glaciers sont également devenus une source croissance d'inquiétude. Plus imprévisibles que jamais, ils menacent désormais les villages à leur pied. De notre correspondante Ondine de Gaulle à Gilgit-Baltistan, Dans une pièce unique, simplement meublée, Malika, 52 ans, tablier noué autour de la taille, s'active aux fourneaux. Dans ce petit restaurant de Gulmit, au cœur du Gilgit-Baltistan, elle a dû tout recommencer à zéro. L'été dernier, son ancien restaurant, au bord de la rivière, a été emporté en quelques minutes par une crue soudaine : « Personne ne nous avait prévenus qu'une chose pareille allait arriver. J'étais occupée à mes tâches habituelles. Soudain, quand la crue a frappé, j'ai fui. Le restaurant et tout le reste ont été emportés. Nous n'avons reçu aucune compensation du gouvernement. » La catastrophe a été provoquée par la rupture d'un lac glaciaire, relâchant soudainement plusieurs millions de mètres cubes d'eau. Le village de Malika se trouve au pied du glacier de Gulmit, qui culmine à près de 7 300 mètres d'altitude : « Le dérèglement climatique s'est aggravé ces trois dernières années. De telles crues s'étaient déjà produites par le passé, peut-être une fois tous les 15 ou 20 ans. Mais leur intensité n'était pas aussi forte. » La région accueille près de 13 000 glaciers, les plus nombreux hors des zones polaires. Nous retrouvons Saleem Khan, guide de haute montagne de 34 ans, à la fin du glacier de Passu. Devant lui, de l'eau jaillit d'une vaste crevasse ouverte dans la glace : « Autrefois, le glacier faisait 30 kilomètres de long, mais il ne mesure plus aujourd'hui que 12 kilomètres, à cause du changement climatique. » À lire aussiAu Pakistan, comment le changement climatique intensifie les moussons meurtrières « Tout a été emporté » Avec la hausse des températures, les glaciers de la région fondent, depuis 2010, à un rythme environ 65% plus rapide que durant la décennie précédente. « Ces glaciers ont causé de nombreux dégâts aux terres agricoles, aux habitations et à l'industrie du tourisme. À terme, les habitants partirons, car il ne restera plus rien. Ce sera la fin de notre civilisation », s'inquiète Saleem Khan. Dans une vallée voisine, à Hassanabad, les crues glaciaires ne sont plus des événements ponctuels et se succèdent depuis 2019. À l'été 2025, une crue soudaine a tout pris à Ali Dawar, 74 ans, chapeau traditionnel vissé sur la tête : « Tout a été emporté : nos cerisiers, nos autres arbres fruitiers, les maisons, les étables... » Il craint que ses enfants ne puissent plus vivre sur ces terres : « Les experts nous ont dit que dans les cinq années à venir, les eaux emporteront tout ce qu'il reste. Mais qu'allons-nous faire ? Nous sommes pauvres. Nous n'avons pas les moyens de louer un logement en ville et nous ne sommes pas assez instruits pour trouver un travail de bureau. » Ces glaciers alimentent une grande partie du Pakistan, et leur disparition progressive pourrait fragiliser la sécurité hydrique et alimentaire de plus de 220 millions de personnes.

MVY Waves! Surf into ten hours of uninterrupted ocean waves, hints of 808, drifting sounds, wind, and a bird chilling amidst the dunes of Aquinnah. Mellow beats, ocean waves, nature, some distant human machines, and chords. Whether you're studying, working, reading, sleeping, or unwinding after a long day, this immersive ambient soundscape provides the perfect background soundtrack. No talking, no interruptions—just pure beach relaxation and meandering sounds. Ignore the World._____So the backbone of this episode was recorded on the footpath, about 40 feet from the surf of Gay Head Town Beach (Moshup Beach) on Martha's Vineyard. It was recorded last week (as of this episode's release) while vacationing in my favorite place on Earth—with more episodes from MVY on the way (stay tuned).Anyway, why is it “Gay Head Town Beach” when the town is Aquinnah? Shortest possible answer: the island was taken from the Wampanoag by settlers and, as with the United States mainland, the tribe was pushed further and further westward into a place we incorporated as “Gay Head.” The tribe had nowhere else to go but the sea... (And I know that ellipsis is doing a lot of work.)So in 1997, by popular vote, residents changed the town name from Gay Head to Aquinnah, or “land under the hill,” which alludes to the clay cliffs and some of the taller elevations on the island. The cliffs really are remarkable—I've visited them almost every year of my life—they don't get old.But settler colonialism isn't much of a chill ambient podcast subject, so I'll save the bitter pills for more historically focussed channels. (Or consider surfing over to the Aquinnah Cultural Center.) It's summer after all (huzzah), so let's wade into less heady waters. Something got stuck in my craw over vacation that I had to yank out. Have y'all ever pondered how musical artists sound more native in specific formats? (And forgive me if music folks already pondered this, I didn't look bc I don't want to get rid of what I've written so far.)I'll stick to what I know—90s-era hip-hop—to demonstrate. And it's very Vineyard for me, as my obsession with hip-hop bloomed in the summers of the '90s. So while I was folding T-shirts at Island Breeze or washing cars at Old Colony Service, I was making paychecks disappear at Aboveground Records (and Al's Package Store, but that's a different tale).Cassette is easy: nothing sounds more cassette-native than DJ Shadow, Black Moon, or the Beastie Boys. The griminess of backpack and alternative hip-hop belongs in analog. And while I'd put Raekwon in the vinyl format camp—he did release “the purple tape.” (which I purchased at the music store in Vineyard Haven—think it's a paint store now.) Just slip “Glaciers of Ice” onto your turntable and you will understand why. Maybe just buy the purple tape and display it.Definitely CD for CRU's Da Dirty 30; a very solid project that plays best uninterrupted—while being able to exit tracks quickly to skip intros that didn't age well. Also, one of the tracks, “Da Dirty 29,” pretends to be a damaged section of the physical media, complete with medium-specific error sounds. So if you play it on CD, you'll hear skipping. Basically, it's much easier to realize that the damaged sounds are an intentional artistic choice on CD.On the cassette side of "Da Dirty 29" it plays as if the tape is being eaten to mush by grinding gears. Look, find some Gen X ******* and ask them how it felt when their favorite cassette started making a grinding sound. You could even drop a cherry on it with, “think of the film clenched in your teeth while the dentist has that nuke-cannon X-ray machine aimed an inch from your face.” That was the sound of your favorite cassette dying.

When Oliver turned 12, his parents told him he could go anywhere in the United States. He picked Alaska. "He's not a dummy," his dad Wesley said. "He knows his parents." And going to Alaska ended up, very quickly, becoming a Disney Wonder sailing — making this one of the most intentional, joyful trip reports we've heard in a long time. In this episode: The family tradition of solo parent-kid trips that made this cruise extra special — and how Oliver's 12th birthday choice proved he was ready for it Coming back to the Wonder after sailing the Destiny: what still works beautifully on the classic ships, and one very funny quote about the atrium The Glacier Explorer excursion — what the guides taught them about glaciers, bergy bits, and cascades, and why watching the Wonder sail away in the Endicott Arm fog was the highlight of the week Port by port: White Pass train and Liarsville gold panning in Skagway, sled dog camp in Juneau, and the Ketchikan Lumberjack Show — which excursions are actually worth your time? Hot takes on the best restaurant, best show, and best pub in the entire fleet The salmon donut situation in Juneau. Don't do it. "The only person who's sorry is my bank account — but that's fine.

The Himalayan glaciers are melting more rapidly as global temperatures rise, raising concerns about the future of ecosystems and communities across the Himalayan mountain range. Glaciers store more than two thirds of the world's freshwater and help regulate global temperatures by reflecting the sun's rays.Across South Asia, melting ice is contributing to the formation of unstable glacial lakes and increasing the risks of floods, droughts and avalanches. The Himalayas are a vital source of water for millions of people, supporting agriculture, energy production and livelihoods from tourism.Experts warn that continued glacier loss could have significant consequences for people living in the region and the mountainous ecosystem, but what can be done to respond to these changes?This week on The Inquiry, we're asking: are the Himalayan glaciers at a tipping point?Contributors: Pasang Yangjee Sherpa, assistant professor at the University of British Columbia, Canada Pam Pearson, director and founder of the International Cryosphere Climate Initiative, US Matthias Huss, glaciologist and senior scientist at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich, Switzerland Alton Byers, faculty research scientist at the Institute of Artic and Alpine Research at the University of Colorado, USPresenter: Tanya Beckett Producer: Matt Toulson Researchers: Evie Yabsley and Amelia Cox Editor: Tom Bigwood Technical producer: Mitch Goodall Production management: Phoebe Lomas and Liam Morrey(Photo: Trekkers walk to Everest Base Camp in Nepal.

Et si nos plus belles aventures sportives devenaient aussi des aventures utiles ? L'été dernier, Aurélie Martin, jeune triathlète passionnée de montagne, a traversé le massif des Écrins à la nage, à vélo et à pied. Son aventure engagée a consisté à réaliser 5 km de nage dans le lac de Serre-Ponçon, 300 km de vélo et 100 km de randonnée glaciaire.Au fil de son périple, Aurélie a rencontré une dizaine de scientifiques, des gardiens de refuge, des guides et des habitants. Son objectif : aller à la rencontre des glaciers français, comprendre ce qu'ils ont à nous dire et partager ce savoir avec le plus grand nombre.Dans cet épisode, Aurélie nous raconte sa fascination pour ces géants de glace, ce qu'elle a appris auprès des glaciologues, et surtout ce que chacun peut faire, à son échelle, pour préserver ces écosystèmes fragiles. Elle nous parle aussi de son engagement au sein des Climatosportifs, ce collectif qui réinvente la pratique sportive en montagne : plus sobre, plus connectée au vivant, plus respectueuse des territoires.Un échange lumineux qui rappelle qu'il n'est pas trop tard. Qu'en agissant maintenant, nous pouvons préserver 50 % des glaciers de la planète. Et qu'il existe mille manières, sportives ou citoyennes, de protéger ce qui nous émerveille. Nous contribuons à écrire les nouveaux récits que nous souhaitons voir advenir !Bonne écoute !Hébergé par Audiomeans. Visitez audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

Antarctic glaciers are melting, but the real story is not just about ice disappearing. It is about what happens next, and how fast those changes can impact sea levels, coastlines, and ecosystems around the world. Glacier collapse is not a slow, steady process. In some cases, it can happen rapidly, triggered by warming oceans, weakening ice shelves, and shifting climate patterns. Scientists are now racing to understand how unstable these systems really are and what it means for the future. In this episode, we break down how glaciers work, why Antarctica matters more than most people realize, and what could happen if key ice systems fail. Because this is not just about the poles. It is about your future.

Across our planet, natural archives preserve the biological footprints of species long gone, from woolly mammoths at the macro scale, through plants and seeds, to dormant bacteria and viruses at the micro end of the spectrum. And one environment that safeguards some of this material in the best condition of all is the cold - in other words, in ice. So, this week, we're going to look at what is sitting in nature's deep freeze... Like this podcast? Please help us by supporting the Naked Scientists

The Devil Within Frozen Evidence: The Duncan MacPherson Case In August of 1989, Duncan MacPherson — a former first-round NHL draft pick from Canada — stepped onto the Stubai Glacier in the Austrian Alps. He rented a snowboard. He rode the lifts. And then he vanished. His car remained in the resort parking lot. His belongings were untouched. Search teams scoured the glacier and surrounding terrain, assuming the kind of tragedy the mountains know too well — a fall, a crevasse, an accident swallowed by ice. Nothing was found. For fourteen years, the glacier kept its silence. Then, in the summer of 2003, melting ice revealed human remains. The mountain had given Duncan back. But what emerged raised more questions than answers.  This episode of The Devil Within explores the unsettling details surrounding Duncan MacPherson's disappearance and recovery, including:     •    His final known movements at a managed glacier resort — not remote wilderness     •    The condition of his recovered snowboard, which showed crushing damage that some analysts believe could be consistent with heavy machinery     •    Injuries that did not clearly align with a simple fall     •    Questions about nighttime snowcat operations on the glacier     •    And the most troubling possibility: that elements of his rental equipment may have been returned through resort systems long before his body emerged No definitive conclusion has ever been reached. But the case raises a disturbing question: What if Duncan's tragedy began as an accident… and was complicated by human systems that chose silence over scrutiny? Glaciers preserve what they take. But time can erode records, memories, and accountability. Fourteen years later, the ice returned a body. The truth may still be buried.
