  Ghoster Coaster

  Ghoster Coaster is a three pitch WI3 located near Canmore, Alberta. There are bolted anchors with rappel rings at the top of each pitch. It’s a long hike in but the ice seems to form reliably.

  Step Right Up

  On January 10, 2025 we climbed Step Right Up, a single pitch, WI3 ice climb near the town of Banff. The climb was in great shape and we had a good day trying different lines.

  Acephale Falls

  Dan and I climbed Acephale Falls for the second time on February 11, 2024. The approach is gentle, and the climb is suitable for beginners. The trail is marked in bright green on FATMAP. Parking is off the Trans Canada Highway. Micro spikes are useful, and the trail is well-defined. The ice can be top-roped.
