A frozen landscape never looked so exquisite.

This time of year, no one wants to think about anything cold (other than cocktails), but these ice caves provide a breathtaking exception.

Firefight Films loaded their DJI Phantom drone with a GoPro to create the first documented drone flight through Alaska's ice caves. The miniature aircraft travels places humans can't explore — and probably don't want to visit.
