To hike the Comb is to run a gauntlet of up-and-down severities, with the precipice lurking on one hand, the fiendishly convoluted bedrock slab on the other-always at a sideways, ankle-wrenching pitch.

As a 13-year-old, Richard de Candole paddled an astounding 900 miles from the Rocky Mountains to Lake Winnipeg.
