Video: Running Alberta’s 100-Foot Ram Falls

May 06, 2019 By: Zack Skovron

Deep in the Canadian Rockies lies the South Ram River, a torrent of whitewater rushing towards the Pacific. Swollen by snowmelt, it has carved deep canyons filled with Class 5 rapids and massive waterfalls. The biggest of these falls, the creatively named 'Ram Falls,' is roughly 100 feet high.

For most, a 100-foot waterfall is a scenic feature to be admired from afar. Not for kayakers Edward Muggridge and Aniol Serrasolses. Follow the pair as they push their limits in pursuit of glory.

Skateboarders pride themselves on their ability to face down incredibly sketchy situations and take injuries without complaint, and nowhere is that attitude more evident than at the Dolores Hill Bomb, an annual event loosely "held" on Dolores Street in San Francisco's Mission District.

The area surrounding Powell River, BC is home to some of the finest granite big wall climbing in North America, and also home to some of the last stands of old-growth forest in the region. Local climbers have long benefited from easy access to remote zones thanks to logging roads and generous land use policies, but have struggled with the choice to look away as pristine valleys are stripped for timber.

VIDEO: Crazy Geology and Epic Whitewater on Chile’s Rio Claro

Dane Jackson has traveled around the world in search of whitewater to kayak, so when he says that a section of river is "about as narrow, committing, and epic as it ever gets," we'll take him at his word. Based on this video, we're hard-pressed to come up with a section of river that exists in the same league as the Rio Claro, much less eclipses it.
