Madison Falls
Madison Falls was probably one of the easiest waterfalls for us to visit. But despite its ease of access, this was also one of the prettier waterfalls we had seen…
Marymere Falls
Marymere Falls was a waterfall that we knew had a lot of fanfare prior to our visit. So it was no surprise to us that it was certainly one of the more popular waterfalls as its car park was…
Moonlight Falls
Moonlight Falls is one of those backcountry waterfalls that’s really more of an incidental attraction in an area better known for 14,000ft peaks and alpine lakes…
“Glacier Point Falls”
“Glacier Point Falls” is the informal name I’m giving to this very short-lived waterfall. In all the years I’ve visited Yosemite and hiked the John Muir Trail, I never…
Bonita Falls
Bonita Falls is one of those waterfalls where you really have to look past its flaws (most of which were human-induced) in order to appreciate its true beauty and fun…
Tahquitz Falls
Tahquitz Falls (pronounced “TAH-kitz” and not “tah-KITZ”) was one of the more spectacular desert waterfalls we’ve ever experienced. Typically, we avoid driving way out to the deserts for waterfalls…
Bird Woman Falls and the Going-to-the-Sun Road Waterfalls
The Bird Woman Falls was perhaps the tallest and most recognizable of the waterfalls seen along the Going-to-the-Sun Road (also called the Sun Road for short), especially near Logan Pass…
Running Eagle Falls
Running Eagle Falls (also called Trick Falls) was probably one of the more unique waterfalls we’ve seen in a while. What made this waterfall so unusual was that it doubled as a natural bridge…
Baring Falls
Baring Falls is a short but stocky waterfall falling maybe around 30ft or so. We thought of it as a pleasant and short day hike allowing us to do a little walking while…
St Mary Falls and Virginia Falls
St Mary Falls (or Saint Mary Falls if I spell it all out) and Virginia Falls were the waterfalling highlights of a popular trail that not only took in both these falls, but they also encompassed…
McDonald Falls
McDonald Falls was one of two roadside waterfalls that Julie and I encountered while briefly touring the western side of the Going-to-the-Sun Road. We thought the scenery on this…
Sacred Dancing Cascade and the McDonald Creek Overlook
Sacred Dancing Cascade, I believe, pertains to the wide river waterfall we saw just upstream from a footbridge spanning the McDonald Creek. There’s some confusion as to whether the waterfall…
Apikuni Falls
Apikuni Falls was perhaps the most striking waterfall that I was able to get close to during our visit to Glacier National Park. Not bad considering that I actually hadn’t planned…
Swiftcurrent Falls
Swiftcurrent Falls was a waterfall that we didn’t realize was a major waterfall in the Many Glacier area of Glacier National Park. In fact, we had initially lumped it in with the other waterfalls…
Many Glacier Waterfalls
The Many Glacier Waterfalls page is where I’m putting a bunch of the waterfalls that we’ve noticed and photographed while visiting the Many Glacier area of Glacier National Park…
Lower Bertha Falls
Lower Bertha Falls was the last Canadian waterfall that we saw during our September 2010 trip. What Julie and I enjoyed most about this excursion were the views of Waterton Lake as well as the…
Cameron Falls
Cameron Falls was a pretty easy waterfall to visit considering it was pretty much right in the town of Waterton. Although we were able to view the falls from its well developed…
Blackiston Falls
Blackiston Falls (or Blakiston Falls – I’ve seen it spelled both ways) was a waterfall that Julie and I hadn’t planned on seeing. Fortunately for us, we noticed it on a topographic map…
Sunwapta Falls
Sunwapta Falls is another one of those waterfalls that we remembered more for its backdrop than the falls itself. In fact, I easily got this confused with Athabasca Falls…
Lower Sunwapta Falls
Lower Sunwapta Falls is actually a series of three waterfalls (at least that’s what I believe I saw) further downstream of the well-signed and well-visited Sunwapta Falls…
