Icefields Parkway from Jasper

The pristine Mistaya River originates on a glacier high above Peyto Lake and carves its way through the limestone walls of the narrow Mistaya canyon as it makes its way toward the North Saskatchewan River. This is a must see while in Banff National Park as it is an easy short walk from the Icefields Parkway. The people sitting on the rocks at the right of the photo give you a better idea of the size of the canyon.
