Nimbus</strong>. Deep in the Purcell mountains, CMH's mountain guides designed and created a <strong>Via Ferrata</strong> (Italian for "Iron Way") adventure like no other. <br/><br/> In the true CMH way, we sent our guides to learn from the masters in Europe. The vertical pathways feature <strong>permanently fixed cables</strong> for safety and <strong>metal rung ladders</strong> to ease movement. Offering remarkable views and a vertical glimpse of the mountains, this is something for everyone. <strong>No special skills or prior experience is required. Just your sense of adventure.*</strong></p> <h2>"If this route was in Boulder or some other U.S. mountain town there would be thousands of people here each and every day."</h2> <p>In 2009, the Bobbie Burns guides added a <strong>glacier walk using crampons and ice axes</strong> to build on the excitement of the Via Ferrata route. <em>Detailed instructions on use of equipment and technique for are all part of this experience.</em> </p><br> <p>*Note that our guides reserve the right to determine which guests will have the opportunity to experience the via ferrata.

I proved to myself that anything is possible. My guides, Gery and Carl, were inspirational and I knew I was safe throughout. Each corner was mind blowing. I'm bringing back my whole family next year." <br /> Judy L, Dallas, Texas</p> <br/> <p>"Why are you not telling more people about this?! If this route was in Boulder or some other U.S. mountain town there would be thousands of people here each and every day. We had a mountain range to ourselves." <br> Nick M., Boulder Colorado</p> <br/><br/>
