Cirque of the Unclimbables

Cirque of the Unclimbables, located inside the Nahanni National Park Reserve, in the Northwest Territories, Canada are ragged peaks that were shaped by the last ice age, and are some of the highest in the Northwest Territories.

In 1955, the legendary mountaineer Arnold Wexler came across a spectacular series of remote cliffs in the Logan Mountains. Frustrated by their sheer granite walls, he named the jagged monsters the Cirque of the Unclimbables.
