Yes, this is real! Candlestick ice is a natural phenomenon that occurs in the spring when the lakes start to thaw. The decaying ice forms vertical, candle-like columns like you can see in this video. If you’re timings just right, you can go paddling through it like I did last year. #banff #canadianrockies #canada #mountains #spring
