Overview
The Columbia Icefield is the largest icefield in the Rocky Mountains and it is one of the most accessible expanses of glacial ice in North America. The tourist main destination at the Columbia Icefield is the Icefield Discovery Centre. As the largest icefield in the Rocky Mountains, the Columbia Icefield features a unique ecological makeup. While much of the landscape is typical of the alpine ecology found throughout the Rocky Mountains, there are some unique flora and fauna found in the general icefield region. It is one of the incredible bucket list destinations for once in a lifetime.-

A challenge issued to your sense of height with a clear glass bridge extending out to the side of the cliff. Walk out on the glass and imagine yourself floating on air thousands of meters above the ground.
