Day-to-Day Itinerary:
The itineraries of all our courses and custom trips are flexible and
depend on the particpant's ability level, personal preferences,
avalanche and ice conditions. Below are some of our favorite ice
climbing locations with driving time from Canmore or Lake Louise.
For our courses, we stronlgy believe in the "Learning by
Doing" concept as well as small group sizes. Expect lots
of climbing!
