Athabasca Falls

The headwater comes from the Columbia Glacier about 70 kilometers south. Among the most powerful and breathtaking falls in the Rocky Mountains, The Athabasca River thunders through a narrow gorge where the walls have been smoothed and potholes are created by the sheer force of the rushing water carrying sand and rock.
South of Jasper approximately 30 kilometers

That kinda sucks that the video was taken in winter. Still love it though. If it was summer or late spring it would of been a lot more water

Truly one of the most incredible places on Earth. The scenic drive between Jasper and Banff is already mind numbing in granduer and scale then you come upon this add'l jewel. Wish I could go every year!
