Description
On this summer day in Yoho National Park (British Columbia Canada), I was heading along Yoho Valley Road to Takkakaw Falls. But it was the sort of day where one visual treat is piled on top of another! Every mile, every step was more awe-inspiring beauty than you could ever hope to see. The early morning light was very soft and delicate and the mountains seen through the haze seemed like a painted backdrop. This bridge that crossed the Kicking Horse River provided a great interest point and I stopped several times on both sides for photos. Eventually the pull of Takkakaw Falls got me to move beyond this point. The Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks of Banff, Jasper, Kootenay and Yoho along with three provincial parks comprise a UNESCO World Heritage site. The seven parks of the Canadian Rockies form a striking mountain landscape. With rugged mountain peaks, icefields and glaciers, alpine meadows, lakes, waterfalls, extensive karst cave systems and deeply incised canyons, the Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks possess exceptional natural beauty, attracting millions of visitors annually.
