uentin Roberts and Jasmin Fauteux woke up in Banff National Park on April 16 with
hopes of climbing a rugged peak along the Icefields Parkway.
When they discovered the next morning that 10 centimetres of snow had fallen, they
reconsidered.
“There was a lot of snow and that was already a concern,” Roberts says. “More snow made every-
thing more dangerous.”
Two years earlier, he was trapped in an avalanche while climbing a frozen waterfall. Torrents of
snow pounded down as he clung to a rope. It filled his hood and jacket and poured into his pants. He
and his climbing partner escaped, badly shaken.
“I made a really stupid mistake,” Roberts, 26, says.
He and Fauteux abandoned their plans. They skied four hours back to their car and headed toward
Canmore, Alta., the town in the Rocky Mountains where Roberts lives.
A few minutes later, Howse Peak came into view. The mountain rises more than three kilometres
as it straddles the continental divide between Alberta and British Columbia in a remote corner of
Banff National Park.
