Just wanted to let everyone know about another large
rockfall event that recently occurred around the Takakkaw falls climb in Yoho Park.
A slab of rock about 2m wide 1m deep and about 2-3m
tall fell from very near or not if at the start of the 5.5 crack at the start
of the 5th pitch on Tak falls. Rapping down to this location on
Wednesday it looked different and finally we were able to figure out what had
happened looking at all the disturbed rock beneath and around this location. The
red circle in the attached photo indicates the chunk of rock that fractured
off.
Yet another spooky eye opening rockfall event this
year.
