Mapping and exploring uncharted territories may seem practically impossible on our planet, but Eddy Cartaya has found some cool places to boldly go where no one else has gone: glacial caves. He shares his experiences and excitement about being the first person to map some ice caves on Mount Hood in Oregon, and explains that, without trigonometry and other math, it would not be possible to accurately map the caves.
