As you explore legendary Banff National Park, you’ll come to Johnston Canyon. A tour of this beautiful part of Alberta is well worth your time if you love the outdoors.
Sightseeing in Johnston Canyon begins with winding down Bow Valley Parkway. Once you arrive in the canyon itself, you’re in for a treat. During the summer, Johnston Canyon is a green, forested place full of wildlife, but winter is when it truly shines. When there’s a chill in the air and ice clings to pine needles, Johnston Canyon transforms into a snow-blanketed wonderland. The towering walls of the canyon lend a quiet, stoic sort of tranquility to the trails and pathways within, creating a world of remarkable stillness.
Once you arrive, embark on the Johnston Canyon Ice Walk, which carries you past streams and striking frozen waterfalls. Snow and ice cling to spruce and aspen trees, glittering in the sunlight. If you’re lucky, you might spot elk, moose, and even wolves.
Johnston Canyon tourism is appropriate for visitors of all ages and walks of life. You can follow an easy, paved path to the Lower Falls, or set out on a longer hike to visit the Upper Falls. Experienced hikers can take in the quiet beauty of the inkpots, a set of six small, spring-fed pools. Be warned—you may wish to bring snowshoes and cleats, as the pathway can get slippery.

Icebreaker clears channel in frozen Moscow river as Russia endures bitterly cold weather
Temperatures have dropped to minus 22 Celsius (minus 8 Fahrenheit) in Moscow, freezing the Moskva river that runs through the capital.
In surrounding regions temperatures fell as low as minus 31 Celsius (minus 24 Fahrenheit) on Thursday, the coldest in the region this year.
While the frozen river is impassable for many vessels, one restaurant boat can plough its own route through the ice.
The boat is an ice breaker that breaks and melts its way through the frozen water.
In such cold weather the restaurant is almost empty: many people struggle to leave their homes, let alone go on a boat trip.
But Viktor Khrikov and his wife Valeria decided to take a trip precisely because of the weather.
As soon as I heard early this morning that it is minus 26 Celsius, I came up with an idea. Why not make a small experiment with this vessel? Will it break (the ice) or not? said Viktor.
Andrey Svistunov and his sister Ina Svistunova went for a walk along the frozen river near the newly built skyscrapers of Moscow City.
On New Year's eve there was only a very thin layer of ice in the centre (of the river). There was water next to the bank and no ice at all. Everything froze in January, said Andrey.
Andrey said he thought the ice might be eight or eight and a half metres deep.
Local media reported the depth of ice by mid January was 16 centimetres.

Grand Canyon High Water, 1983: Glen Canyon Damn Nearly Busts!
This is an updated version of when the Bureau of Wreck The Nation nearly lost Glen Canyon Damn, then of course came up with all sorts of reasons why it wasn't their fault. Read The Emerald Mile for some great history on that plus the dory speed run on 100,000 cfs! We river runners got the rides of our lives. At the first presentation of this compilation at the Guides Training Seminar, the few remaining guides who'd been there all came up to me and said: What the f**k were we thinking? ;-) Other guides get sick of us silverbacks retelling the tale, but it was a milestone in our lives. Anyone with any footage or photos of that event please contact me. Enjoy!
Red Bull Pond Skimming competition in St Petersburg, Russia
More than 1000 spectators gathered on the hill on April 16th near St.Petersburg, Russia, to watch skiers and snowboarders pond skimming. 124 daring contestants dressed in wild costumes launched into the icy pool after hitting a kicker at the end of the run in slope; making this pond skimming event very unique. Some of the costumes included the likes of Spounge Bob, a Cactus, Divers, and Futurama heroes to name a few. In the end
the competition was won by the Cactus, who managed to pull a double backflip into the pond.

Lake Louise - City Video Guide
Lake Louise is just 60 km from Banff and Banff National Park. While most creatures are hibernating in the winter, Lake Louise is just coming to life. Frozen waterfalls, alpine woodlands, and plenty of chances to play on the snow all make Lake Louise an ideal place to visit during winter time.
Lake Louise tourism opportunities are a dream come true for snow lovers. The Lake Louis ski area has a whopping 42 acres of mountain terrain and well over 100 marked trails. Snowboarders are also welcome to make their way down the mountain. What better way to do some Lake Louise sightseeing than on the back of a dogsled? Dogsledding is a true adventure, taking you through forest trails.
Once you’ve had your fill of the slopes, slow things down with an ice skating excursion or snowshoe across the frozen lake. Enjoy Lake Louise tours in a horse drawn carriage, where you can soak up the chilled air and have a magical winter experience. While you have your choice of accommodations, none quite compare to the Fairmont Chateau, which sits right on the shore of the lake and is exquisitely outfitted.

Grand Canyon of the Fraser in Winter minus 15 Celsius
Snowshoe trip to the historic and scenic Grand Canyon of the Fraser River in North Central British Columbia on February 5, 2017. Situated in the northwest corner of Sugarbowl-Grizzly Den Provincial Park, it is about 75 kilometres east of the City of Prince George. Historically, over 200 people are thought to have perished in the Grand Canyon of the Fraser starting with the last of the Overlanders in the fall of 1862 that involved acts of cannibalism ('The History of the Northern Interior of British Columbia' by A. G. Morice, 1904; pages 300-302), and peaking in the early 20th Century just before railway construction along the upper Fraser River. Like the infamous Chilkoot Trail, police were eventually stationed at the head of the Grand Canyon in 1913 to try and stem the tide of deaths as inexperienced scow operators tried to run the canyon ('Sternwheelers & Canyon Cats: Whitewater Freighting on the Upper Fraser' by Jack Boudreau; Caitlin Press, 2006; Ch. 4, pages 108-131, Canyon Tragedies). There is currently no developed access to the Grand Canyon and for the past 50 years it has been all but inaccessible except by river boat or bushwhacking in the summer, and by skis or snowshoes in mid-winter when the creeks are frozen. Hard to access, it is almost always worthwhile!

Few people have ever completed a thru-hike of the Grand Canyon, and now National Geographic explorers Kevin Fedarko and Pete McBride know why: The 750-mile hike quickly proved to be the most difficult undertaking of their lives. With no trail to follow, the two found themselves bushwhacking through dense brush and cacti, and moving up and down steep vertical terrain in scorching heat as they navigated their way through the canyon. Though they initially embarked on the hike as a way to raise public awareness of development issues threatening the iconic national park, the pair quickly found they had completely underestimated the difficulty of their journey and nearly quit in the first week. Join Fedarko and McBride as they comically recount their brutal adventure and shed light on the myriad of threats facing Grand Canyon National Park.

Snowballs in July? St Petersburg covered with piles of ‘snow’
Fancy throwing snowballs in summer or going barefoot and T-shirt-clad during a ‘snowfall’ in July? This weekend in St. Petersburg, Russia would have been perfect after a heavy hailstorm hit the city.
On Saturday, streets in St. Petersburg were covered with piles of snow and the roads resembled winter rivers. City residents took to social media to share the unusual summer scenery.

Photographer Pete McBride and writer Kevin Fedarko embark on a perilous adventure to make a sectional thru-hike of the Grand Canyon, a feat few have accomplished. In places, the canyon is 18 miles wide and more than a mile deep, and the adventurers quickly realize the enormity of the task ahead, enduring sprained ankles and hyponatremia mere days into the hike. But the endless scrambling and climbing in the extreme heat give way to staring in awe at the beauty of the Confluence, an area considered sacred by local tribes, where the waters of the Little Colorado River and the Colorado River meet—and where developers hope to build a tram to serve up to 10,000 tourists a day.
