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…

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…

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…

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…

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…

Weeping Wall

The Weeping Wall apparently pertained to a particular wall where supposedly many waterfalls could be coming down at once under the right conditions. Well, as you can see from…

Bridal Veil Falls

Bridal Veil Falls was a pretty tall multi-tiered cascade said to have a cumulative drop of some 1200ft. I had doubts about that gaudy height figure because I was only able to see something on the…

Silverton Falls

Silverton Falls is a relatively quiet and fairly unknown waterfall within the boundaries of Banff National Park. At least it certainly seemed that way to us as we only saw a couple…

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…

Tangle Falls

Tangle Falls was a delicate multi-tiered cascade that we just happened to see following a rather unusual snowstorm (unusual in that it was still technically Summer when it happened)…

“Sideways Falls” (“Big Bend Falls”)

I’m putting “Sideways Falls” or “Big Bend Falls” in quotes because I believe that these are informal names this fairly conspicuous waterfall that can be spotted right off…

Maligne Canyon Waterfalls

The Maligne Canyon Waterfalls (pronounced “muh-LEEN”) are the waterfalls that can be found within the depths of Maligne Canyon. Julie and I did a real straightforward…

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…

Panther Falls

Panther Falls was what Julie and I thought of as the mysterious neighbor to Bridal Veil Falls. While Bridal Veil had a signpost and was quite easy to see from the large pullout…

Overlander Falls

Overlander Falls is a short but wide gushing waterfall on the Fraser River. This was another one of those waterfalls that we hadn’t planned on seeing going into our September…

Thunder Falls

Thunder Falls is a waterfall I noticed across Moose Lake while motoring along Hwy 16. I almost dismissed this waterfall as one of those dime-a-dozen cascades you normally chance upon…

Rearguard Falls

Rearguard Falls was another one of those unplanned waterfalls that we happened to chance upon thanks to its conspicuous sign right off the Hwy 16. This waterfall was more like a wide series…

Dawson Falls

Dawson Falls, which Julie likes to refer to it as “Dawson’s Creek Falls” because of the TV show she used to watch, was a wide river-type waterfall said to be on the Murtle River. Due to its broad…
