Description Suggest change

Towards the end of the ice season, parts of Alexandra Falls can freeze up enough to be climbable.  How solid it is and what the climbable connection between the canyon bottom and the top of the falls is can vary heavily by season.  Some seasons, it connects just enough you can carefully pick your way up an ice tube with water still roaring through it (fun/horrifying), other seasons it becomes an enormous, 100' lump of ice you can half scramble up (fun/easy).

Location Suggest change

Pull into the Alexandra Falls pull off a few kilometres south of Enterprise.  Walk to the right of the picnic area until you can easily scramble down to the river and walk to the top of the falls to rappel down.
