Waterfall ice climbing and avalanches in Canada's mountain national parks .: R64-379/2010E-PDF
Waterfall ice climbing in the national parks of Banff, Jasper, Yoho, Kootenay and Waterton Lakes offer an unparalleled experience for the ice climber. A combination of access, reliable conditions, hundreds of options, and a long season have secured the Canadian Rockies reputation as one of the world’s premier waterfall ice climbing destinations. But winter climbing in the Canadian Rockies presents significant hazards that are unique to this area, and visitors must understand these hazards before climbing in the range. These are big mountains; climbers must be informed, prepared, aware of their options, and respectful of the conditions at all times.
