FROZEN WATERFALLS

COURAGEOUS CLIMBERS scale frozen waterfalls in Canada, as the ice threatens to collapse beneath them. Climbing heights ranging from forty to a few hundred feet, they brave the ice towers as they make their way to the top. These amazing photographs were captured by Canadian outdoor adventure photographer Alain Denis, 41, after he decided to explore the frozen waterfalls in the Laurentian mountain area in Quebec, Canada.
