This quick nature walk would serve as a great spot to have a picnic or to quickly stretch your legs. It still manages to provide a few different view types, including a great view of Bonney glacier to the south as well as a small boulder field and a lush forest that is taking over the rocks.
The trail through the boulders has been laid out using rocks from the boulder field making an easy path.
Pine forest and moss slowly overtakes the rock field.
Very cool. I haven't been to Waterton but I spend a lot of time in glacier. Looking forward to seeing more.
If you mean Glacier on the US side, yeah my favorite park that I’ve been to. I’ll spend a little time there when I cross over, gotta get in another go on the Pitamakan-Dawson for one thing. I’ve always been there end of season though so it’ll be nice to see this time of year. Waterton will be first time for me.
I was there early this season when all the creeks were full and the waterfalls were huge and loud. Every few weeks it's like a new park until winter settles in
