毎年行われているアラスカのジュノー氷原の氷河学校の募集がでています．約２カ月にわたってアラスカからカナダにスキーで氷河を横断しながら，氷河を勉強するというものです．アメリカの高校生から大学院生まで毎年参加しています．私も10年前に半分だけ参加して，とても勉強になりました．参加料4800ドル（飛行機代含まず）とちょっとお高いですが，円高なのでいつもよりお得かも．

Lake region, British Columbia –Yukon, August 18, 2011. The program
emphasizes field research in glacier and climate science and
introduces field relationships between glaciohydrology, glacierized
landscapes, and alpine ecology using the tools of satellite remote
sensing, GPS-glacier surveying, meterology and geophysics. Students,
faculty, and staff utilize nunatak field camps located across the
icefield. Students also develop skills in extreme environment
expeditionary science work. Upper division Environmental Science
