We skipped Athabasca Falls when we came to Jasper because they were so crowded. Getting our rigs into the parking lot, despite it being the largest of the lots, would have been too much of a challenge, so we went back on Monday.
Because it was Monday, the crowds were much smaller, but we still had a little trouble finding a parking spot. We gathered up Jordy and Nelson and walked down to the falls. Again, a huge river pours into an area that is too small for it, so it erodes the canyon. What I love about these falls is that they have all sorts of pot holes around which the water swirls. Because the water was very high, we couldn’t see many of the potholes this time, but I did get a video of one.

| I cannot turn this one vertically . . . phooey . . . but it certainly shows how large the river is! |
