Athabasca Falls Canyon

It's not often you get a sense of stillness at Athabasca falls. I took this shot in in early spring looking through the canyon downstream of the falls. The shoulder seasons are nice in places like Athabasca so one can experience them without the crowds. People fall into this canyon almost every year and most don't live to tell the tale. Social media platforms give a false sense of familiarity with places which can be dangerous. It's always important to research and understand the risks with any location however that is especially true in the mountains. Athabasca Falls, Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada

Cool; I think lots of people will be out in their RV given all the international travel restrictions.

I have to rent an RV because I'm a little far from Canada (italy)

I see; lets hope travel opens up by then ;-)

I’m somewhat concerned about people, even familiar environments can be dangerous in some circumstances 😵

People are their own worst enemies sometimes.
