This video comes from our Canadian correspondent Jamen, and documents a day of Ice Climbing in the Ghost Wilderness, a beautiful area that is just west of Calgary, bordering Banff National Park. The Ghost is considered by many to be the center of the universe for ice climbing, as there are great routes and cold temperatures, yet a very low risk of avalanches.
So if you're in to ice climbing, be sure to check out this video. If you aren't into ice climbing, there are some beautiful scenes and great music, and it's quite entertaining to watch... Enjoy!

Cool video. I grew up in Cochrane (30 min from there). I wouldn't be drinking that water. Looks nice and clean but I've seen how many elk, deer and sheep shit in it.
That is really WI 4? The first curtain looks kind of flat and about what 40/50 feet? - to the ice ledge?. The second curtain looks mostly straight up. Is that right? Is that the WI4 sections? Thendoes it go into the canyon where you don't need pro? Is there anything after that?
The second pitch would be the only stretch of WI 4. approx. 60'. The route itself climbs a narrow gully linking multiple pitches of ice of varying degrees of difficulty - straight forward and definitely worth the trip in. Not far from, This House of Sky.

I'm used to mixed lines so maybe it is just me.
