Llewellyn Glacier, British Columbia, 1997

Photograph by Jay Dickman

Rick Janowicz, Michael Parfit, and Jay Dickman searched the Llewellyn Glacier in British Columbia for the source of the Yukon River. They were the first to identify the river's starting point, an unnamed stream that burst from underneath the ice.
