the many faces of the canadian rockies

Entering into the Canadian Rockies from the west, (enroute to Jasper), one of the first awesome views that greets you is Mt. Robson. On a very clear day (about 30% of the time), you can see the entire mountain face, which rises over 2900 meters above the valley floor, up to its peak of 3954 meters. This is the highest mountain in the Canadian Rockies. What an introduction!

A closer look at the Mountain of the Spiral Road, as originally referred to by the Texqakalit peoples.

Once in the little town site of Jasper, surrounded by many peaks, you will notice a peculiar image, just slightly north-east of the town. With a little imagination, you can picture an elder chief, laying on his back, with two feathers draping down the mountain. He has a very pronounced chin. This mountain is referred to as Roche Bon Homme, or Old Man Mountain

you will notice the most majestic of the surrounding mountains around Jasper: Mt. Edith Cavell. This graceful mountain was named after a British nurse, who was executed by the Germans during WW I. The moun- tain glows during sunrise. Edith Cavell never saw the beautiful mountain named after her. (3363 m)

East of Jasper, there is a wonderful geological feature, Maligne Canyon. To walk to the best view (Bridge #5), you can drive to the parking lot. It is an easy 2-minute walk. The canyon does not reveal itself, until you are right above it, standing on the footbridge. A Jesuit Priest tried to cross Maligne River, and was warned not to do so by the First Nations People. He did anyway, and had a terrible time. Hence, the name Maligne (French for malignant, or wicked).

A magnificent view from Goats Bluff, overlooking the Athabasca River Valley. This viewpoint is just a few meters off the Icefields Parkway. Mt. Brussels is just to the right of Mt. Christie, and together they resemble a submarine surfacing (Mt. Brussels being the conning tower). Brussels Peak was one of the last major summit to be climbed, and not without controversy. In 1948, two climbers used drills and expansion bolts to ascend the peak. (3161 m)
