THis airy traverse off the belay on the last pitch is a great finish to Bonanza...until you hit the scree at the top - bombs away!

C. Zubris among one of many, many pitches! Good fun, more of an alpine ramble than a true ice route. Better ice near summit. I actually retreated just below summit due to flimsy leather boots= reaggrivating prior cold damage to my toes. I will giver a go next season. Dont worry I have invested in good foot wear! Great climb!

This picture was taken on the way back down from This House of Sky. Climber is Justin Gullickson picture was taken by Heather McCulloch. Fun day of Ice climbing if you are ever in the Ghost Valley and looking for a day of easy climbing.

The first 2 pitches were so fun. There is one more step above the picture to finish the crux.

Fang & Fist is at the end of North Ghost Valley. 400 m, WI 5. This route was awsome.

Beowulf, 670 meters, WI 4. Great 1st pitch, awsome scramble through narrows and fun 100 meter grade 3 finish.

670 m, WI 4. 250 m vertical gain, 625 m horizontal. Tons of short roping and soloing. Partner Sarah ahead on the narrows!

Lots of good, blue plastic, ice made for quick climbing over 100's of meters of WI 2/3 soloing. Sarah below

On the descent, Sarah rappeling the first pitch. 25 meters, WI 4.

Dave M. boulders on the massive flow named The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.

Tony D. of Calgary leading the warm-up 5.9 Recky Route left of Alberta Jam in the north Ghost.

Alberta Jam is one of the Ghost's classic routes. Fully gear protected which is rare on Rockie's limestone. Unfortunately, I think I look fat. Do you think I look fat?

Calgarian Tony Devonshire cranks up Alberta Jam in the North Ghost. The first 15m is the crux then gets one grade easier to the top. A wierd formation for Alberta.

Cruising on THOS (This House of Sky) November 2008.
