In-Depth Information
Everybody traveling to this small, rugged 526-square-kilometer (203-square-mile) park
does so by choice; tucked away in the extreme southwestern corner of Alberta, the park is
not on a major highway or on the way to anywhere else. It's bounded to the north and east
by the rolling prairies covering southern Alberta; to the south by the U.S. border and Gla-
cier National Park in Montana; and to the west by the Continental Divide, which forms the
Alberta-British Columbia border. The natural mountain splendor, a chain of deep glacial
lakes, large and diverse populations of wildlife, an unbelievable variety of day hikes, and
a changing face each season make this park a gem that shouldn't be missed on any trip to
the Canadian Rockies.
