YOHO NATIONAL PARK
Takakkaw Falls. 373 metres (1,224 ft) high, the second tallest waterfall in Canada. The main drop of the waterfall has a height of 254 metres (833 ft). Fed by the Daly Glacier, part of the Waputik Icefield, the glacier keeps the volume of the falls up during the warm summer months.
Lake O’Hara. My favourite place in the Canadian Rockies.
Burgess Shale. The Canadian Rockies consist of sedimentary rock, with numerous fossil deposits. In particular, the Burgess Shale, in Yoho National Park, has among the world’s richest deposits of rare fossils.
