We were up at 4 AM to get to this waterfall before the Summer crowds. It was so worth it! If you ever get to Jasper, Alberta this is a must see.
It is an intricate and many-faceted waterfall with stairs and platforms for viewing and each place offers a different view. There are several different falls that comprise Athabasca.Trick Falls (Running Eagle Falls)
During Winter and early Spring when the runoff is abundant, a second fall shoots over the top, along with the one you see here, coming out of the rocks. One waterfall or two, it is stunning to see the water tumble out and over the rocks of this unusual waterfall.

There are so many different viewing areas and opportunities to see this amazing falls at different angles. I loved the complexity of this view as the falls rush down river, swirling into this circular space carved into the rocky cliff from years of rushing water.

This was my favorite waterfall of this trip to Glacier National Park. Not only was it spectacular but difficult to find and get to. The tripod was perched up on the edge of a very small ledge and the incoming storm created strong winds which made a long exposure difficult. So in the name of full disclosure, this image, although my favorite, is not tack sharp, so printing in a very large format is not recommended. This is the only photo I've put on my website that is not tack sharp.
But I'm printing mine anyway!!!
You've been warned. :)
