Green Monster Icefall Hike: A Winter Hiking Adventure in Kananaskis Country
Green Monster Icefall is a winter only hike tucked along Evan Thomas Creek in Kananaskis Country. This seasonal adventure leads through frozen creek corridors and past smaller icefalls before reaching the towering emerald tinted waterfall known as the Green Monster. With exposure, chains, and shared use with ice climbers, this hike asks for presence, preparation, and respect. It is a powerful reminder that winter holds its own quiet magic when we choose to lean into it.
