FROZEN WATERFALL
A DARING duo take their chances and scale this spectacular 82ft frozen waterfall before it collapses. A climb certainly not for the faint heard, one wrong step could leave you slipping down the blanket of ice. But that didn't stop this pair of daredevils rising to the challenge. Adventure sport photographer Alain Denis, 40, captured the spectacular images of his partner Calixte Leblanc, 32, taking on the ascent. Using just ice tools, ice screws, crampons and a harness, Alain and his partner were able to climb the waterfall in a mere twenty minutes
