Meet the guides finding safe paths through melting mountains

from What On Earth

From the Best of What On Earth — Glaciers are rapidly retreating in Canada’s Rockies and that’s making it more hazardous to navigate some alpine routes. In this documentary, we visit Banff National Park to meet guides who are adapting to the different ways climate change is altering a once familiar landscape. Plus, what you need to know about how older people can stay safe in extreme heat.
