Colombia Icefields

---

The Columbia Icefield is located in the Canadian Rockies. It sits on the continental divide along the border of British Columbia and Alberta. Part of the icefield sits on the northwestern edge of Banff National Park the southern edge of Jasper National Park. It is 125 square miles (325 square kilometres) and the glaciers can reach up to 1,198ft (365 metres) deep.

There are six major glaciers that make up the icefield – Athabasca, Castleguard, Columbia, Dome, Stutfield, and Saskatchewan. The Columbia Icefield is the largest icefield in North America south of the Arctic.

Having visited these ice fields a few years back it was nice to be able to virtually return with http://www.heygo.com
