Through the Eye of the Glacier - A 12,000-Year Old Mystery is Revealed Inside an Alaskan Glacier. 10,000 B.C. In the receding ice age of the vast Tanana River Valley of Interior Alaska, mammoth hunters encounter a mysterious and beautiful treasure. Rediscovered deep within a glacier during the heyday of Trans-Alaska Pipeline construction, two Athabaskan students from the University of Alaska share an adventure of scientific and cultural discovery in the midst of stunning, ethereal beauty of Alaska. This is a story of music, brilliant auroras, and luminescent moonlight on crisp Alaska snowfields. It is a tale of hope and shared dreams that will be told around the campfires of a thousand worlds.
