Winter cave exploring is not exactly the best idea in Alaska.


Courtesy of KTUU: Michael Glidden was wandering the ice-blue remains of a glacier in the Chugach National Forest Saturday when he spotted one particularly, deep, dark tunnel, he says. 

The Anchorage retiree and his two American Eskimo Dogs, Shasta and Aspen, ventured inside. Temperatures had dipped to 29 degrees along the riverbeds outside.

It wasn’t until he got home and began posting pictures online that Glidden noticed an unusual shape, hidden in the shadows, had been there in the cave with him all long. 

The photo was cloudy but the claws gave the animal away.

 Good thing that bears are heavy sleepers this time of year.

Alaska, where you are constantly only yards away from something that could definitely kill you.
