Maligne Canyon and Beaufort Lake, Canada

Just some more Jasper-fect scenery.

Three short walks were the order for our final day in Jasper. We took to Maligne Canyon first, witnessing the creation of powerful water, ice and roots in impressive fashion. The highlight for sure was watching enormous quantities of water enter the river from the canyon walls, or perhaps the panicked deer which frantically tried to escape the pedestrian corridor.

Up next we circumnavigated Beaufort Lake. The rich's playground instilled much jealousy, particularly in comparison to our lilos-in-a-tent, but we enjoyed what we could free of charge and left swiftly. The lake itself is a wonder to be paddled, swum and fished. Finally we tackled the Old Fort loop trail, predominantly in the hopes of seeing the bear reported in the area. No such luck. Great views of Jasper made up for it... ish.もっと詳しく
