stinkyclimber Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 Wow, that is crazy. We were there in the spring of 1994, I believe, on our way to the Monarch Icefields with Jan, Mike and Guy E. I have a photo of Guy heel hooking a tree at a closer overlook of the falls, hanging over the void. I remember Guy idly speculating how cool it would be if that bugger ever froze, not thinking, I don't think, that it ever would, much less that it would ever get climbed. Quote
G-spotter Posted February 23, 2009 Author Posted February 23, 2009 Fred T. has a pic from the spring (April) with ice all over it but a big running sore down the middle. There is suposedly quite a bit of ice being developed in the Bella Coola valley by heli-ski guides on rest days- Jia sent me some amazing pics last year. Quote
