North Saskatchewan Glacier from Parker Ridge Hike in Jasper National Park. A short distance south of the Columbia Ice Fields complex the hike begins from a parking lot at the side of the road. A walk up to the ridge gives you spectacular views of the headwaters of the North Saskatchewan River which ultimately empties into Hudson's Bay.
