Helcaraxë
It’s damn difficult walking on snow and ice. How did they do it? How did they carry all their stuff? Did they have sled animals, and what type of animals? Did they travel back and forth carting gear? What did they eat? What did they use for fuel? Just some of my thoughts...

(My "grinding ice" is inspired by photos from my adventures on the beautiful Kā Roimata ō Hine Hukatere (Franz Josef Glacier) in New Zealand.)
