Athabasca Falls - The Backpacker

French Backpacker!

Read about the water colors!





Grows as part of the spruce trees!


The day after the Icefields, we took a couple of smaller hikes between the raindrops. We did see a black bear on one of the back roads; and talked to a young backpacker from France who was taking a summer break from the University in Montreal.


We visited Athabasca Falls that same day. The water is turquoise color and it is really cool what the eroding water has done to the rock along the river.
