That is some exposure!Sitting comfy at the 5th pitch belay. That is 4th class terrain with some bolts on the traverse. The route heads straight up from there. Two pitches later you are next to the falls. It is crazy to watch the shadow of the falls on the face below!

Rubbly first pitch but gets betterGreg heading up the first pitch(5.5). Gets better near the end. The second 5.4 pitch is nice and steep on jugs but is only 15m.

The old bum bum shotWhat some may say is the crux pitch as you leave the belay with the rooster tail of the falls in full view. The winds changed at one point and my belayers got sprayed huge.

What a cute pairAndy and myself poser it up with the falls behind, well knowing in the egg cooking heat that the route is in the bag.

Candace coming up to the cave belayCandace finishing the last few feet of totally runout 5.5 climbing with the falls crashing behind. We did the route with walkie-talkies which made it so much more relaxing to communicate.

The cave passage of TakI'm about to head into the 100m long, flat cave passage that pops out at where the falls spill over the edge. We topped out on a 30m 5.6 pitch after the cave, a place you don't want to fall on. The cave is a good laugh and the rumble inside of the falls is weird.

A rest after a 3 hr. bushwackOur group rests after nearly three horrible hours of bushwacking back down to the river valley. This was taken at 8pm and the camera died after this shot, then out came a gorgeous rainbow. Next time!

Second last pitch on Takakkaw Falls routeTakakkaw Falls is the second highest watefall in Canada and one of the classic ice climbs in the area. This route gives you a different perspective of the falls. The climb takes you to a cave which spits you out at the mouth of the falls. Climb early in the day to avoid getting wet.

Takakkaw Falls, BCJeff Litster on Takakkaw Falls route. Good quality rock with some interesting moves. The crux pitch leads up the face to the left of the falls... amazing!
