This stop-off along the Icefields Parkway is best known for its gorgeous views of the Athabasca Valley and the magnificent mountains that lie around it. A picnic area is available and makes for a pleasant stop. Down the hill from the picnic site, however, is a naturally-occuring deposit of minerals, including salt. Thanks to this, mountain goats often come to the area in order to supplement their diets. Visitors are fascinated by the displays of wildlife and are welcome to take photos and look as long as they like. They're warned, however, not to feed any of the animals; to do so is illegal. 23 miles south of Jasper. Hours: Open Daily dawn-dusk Payment Methods: Visa, Master Card Admission: Daily Pass Adult CAD8.90; Senior CAD7.65; Child CAD4.45; Family CAD17.80 |
