カリブー山脈の滝・トップ11

Triple Decker Falls is a three-tiered waterfall, cascading roughly 60 meters over volcanic rock into a pool at the bottom. The forest around the falls is dense, and the trail is easily accessible from Clearwater Valley Road. After heavy rain, the falls will flow more strongly, but be careful on the trail, as it can get slippery.

The Canim Falls Trail is a short, well-maintained hike that brings visitors to one of the area’s most impressive waterfalls. The trail winds through forests before reaching two viewpoints: one overlooking Canim Falls and the other overlooking Mahood Falls. The Canim River rushes through a narrow volcanic rock canyon, and there are several railings and platforms with views of the river, and interpretive signs explain the area’s geology and natural history.

A tough climb, but really cool.

So incredibly cool! You don't want to miss this.

If you actually want to go hiking here in Wells Gray Park, this is a good option. The path is narrow and steep. After the bridge, you're actually on your own. It's nice to have a waterfall to yourself for a change.

The road to the parking lot from Helmcken Falls is quite bumpy, with lots of potholes, etc. It's no problem with a pickup truck or SUV, and doable with a regular car, but you do have to be a bit careful. The "flying" fish are worth it, though.

From the Dawson Falls parking lot, a trail along the Murtle River takes you to the Falls in about 10 minutes. About two-thirds of the way, there is an excellent viewing point for the Falls. The water of the Murtle River plunges about 18 meters down a step at Dawson Falls. If you're lucky, you can see a rainbow below the Dawson Falls. Opposite is another observation point; it can be reached from the Pyramid Campground. In addition to Dawson Falls, there are six other waterfalls along the Murtle River in Wells Gray Park.

“Helmcken Falls is the centerpiece to Wells Gray Provincial Park, one of the most powerful waterfalls on earth and one of BC’s prime tourist draws. The Murtle River, which is just a few kilometers upstream, drops over 300 foot (91 m) wide Dawson Falls, narrows to about 75 feet (23 m) wide and surges over the lip of Helmcken Canyon, hurtling 462 feet (141 m) into one of the largest river-sculpted amphitheaters in North America. The bowl behind the falls recedes over 150 feet (46 m) into the cliff and stretches over 500 feet (152 m) wide. Just downstream lies a 50 foot (15 m) lower tier which isn’t usually counted in the total height of the falls but legitimately boosts this to a 500 foot (152 m) tall waterfall. Pictures really do not do this waterfall justice, as there is no way to convey the true power and volume of water spilling off the cliff.” (Visit June 3, 2018) https://www.worldwaterfalldatabase.com/waterfall/Helmcken-Falls-2303
