Maligne Canyon

 

We continued our quest for more and more views of waterfalls in the afternoon as we trod the trail up Maligne Canyon.

On the short drive to the beginning of the canyon walk, we were treated to the usual spectacular views.

Here are a few photos as we walked up a (rather steep at times) trail.

As usual, video is better than stills for looking at waterfalls. So, you might want to look at this video:

The falls was classified as lower falls, upper falls, and upper upper falls (top of the falls). Chuck is the only one that pushed on to the top. The rest of us were quite content to go rest our weary bones in the cafe and drink to Chuck in his quest for the top. Chuck joined us for lunch about two hours later.

Anyway, here are some of the hardy hikers:
