Thank you! Yah, like the other person pointed out this is cirque of the unclimbables Nahanni National park in the North West Territories. Territories are like provinces but with less people.

Can you tell me about how you planned this trip? I’m from Alberta and I have been dreaming of Nahanni for years, but I don’t know how to reasonably get there. Drive? Fly? Both? Nearest town has groceries, haul everything in?

You’re not a travel guide so no need to answer if you don’t want, but I’m jealous of your adventure!

We flew into Whitehorse then drove for about 6 hours east. We then caught a float plane from close to the Yukon boarder with kluane air. After that it’s about a 5-8 h hike to this spot.

And you didn't include all these details of your trials and tribulations to get the shot in the title of the post?

AmaIng. Thanks for sharing.
