Mount Edith Cavell, Easy short walk, August'07 and August'10

Mount Edith Cavell his trully a remarkable place in the Rockies. With only a short 10 minutes walk from the parking lot's the views of Edith Cavell is outstanding. Located 29 km from Jasper town site, Mount Edith Cavell and Angel glacier are like no other place in the Rockies. Just the road to get there is impressive and the switchbacks are breathtaking. Mount Edith Cavell brings you to a desert scenery with barely any trees, a waterfall falling down, a lake of many icebergs and an icy cave unique in his kind. It's often possible to hear Angel glacier explode and that noise, if you witness it, will keep you shaking for long minutes afterwards. Trully and experience in itself. If I havent convince you yet to go and explore this area of Jasper, look at my pictures since they worth 1000 words.

I've been to Mount Edith Cavell twice and both times with friends from back home. The first time with Ben in mid August 2007 and the second time in early August 2010 with Sebastien Boileau and Jolene Boudreau during their visit in the Rockies.
