Sean is out guiding with Ben Johns in Terrace right now and this just happened…. 😱
A magical moment in Maligne Canyon 🪄
Maligne Canyon is not only beautiful; it’s dangerous! If you are unfamiliar with mountain hazards, please go with a guide. That’s why we’re here!
Interested in avalanche education? Want to go for a backcountry ski tour? Sean has been out guiding on the coast all month but will be back in Jasper Feb. 11th. Shoot us a message or visit our website to see the latest programs on offer. See you out in the mountains!

A little stroll through Maligne Canyon
After finding a weak layer during our Compression Test, we decided to do a different test to see if we could get the layer to propagate, or travel across, our column of snow. It’s called an Extended Column Test and here’s what we found…
💧The #malignecanyonicewalk changes throughout the winter due to the constant ebb and flow of water. You might not see the same thing twice! Every single Ice Walk is stunningly beautiful! 🤩
Who’s ready for snow? 🙋🏻♀️😁
Aren’t we all kids on snow days?! ❄️
In our AST courses, you get lots of opportunity to practice companion rescue. This is Round #2 for this group. We time the rescues and then aim to reduce that time after each attempt. Great job everyone!
**There are 2 spots left in our Dec 1-2 course and there’s now a NEW COURSE open for Jan. 10-11th. Reserve your spot on our website and come join us in the mountains!
Local kids climbing programs were happening all week here at Jasper Hikes & Tours. These kids crushed it out at Kerkeslin crag yesterday!
Canada or the Caribbean? 🤩
🐧Penguin sliding in Maligne Canyon!
Another day another ski in beautiful bluebird weather!
💦Water in Maligne Canyon is so clean you can drink it right out of the rocks!
For the kids of Atikameg (Whitefish Lake First Nation) this was a very special experience today.
Everyone should have access to clean drinking water as it is a right not a privilege. We call on the Canadian government and @justinpjtrudeau to do better for ALL citizens of this great country 🇨🇦
Just a little fun sliding around Maligne Canyon!
So proud of our students this week as they executed a full companion rescue scenario in under 5 minutes 😀. Still a few spots left on our AST course this weekend—grab one before it’s too late!
