Mt Fryatt and Geraldine upstream of the falls. Some of the area around here has burned.

Athabasca Falls rushing with Mount Kerkeslin in the background. The jagged nature of the rock here is because it is made of hard gog quartzite beaing sheared off.

The top of Athabasca falls. While the other side is gated off, this has pretty easy access.

The slot canyon being formed downstream of Athabasca falls.

A popular waterfall on the icefields parkway, #AthabascaFalls is great quick stop at less than half a mile. Continuing upstream from the falls may give you a chance to separate from the crowds while seeing magnificent views of #MtGeraldine #MtFryatt and surrounding peaks.
