The two RV Gypsies enjoy Sunwapta Falls
August 26, 2009
Sunwapta Falls is 33 miles from the town of Jasper. Sunwapta means "turbulent river" in the language of the Stoney Nation, which is a great description for this unpredictable watercourse plummeting over the cliffs into a deep canyon.

There are many ways to view Sunwapta Falls: from the viewing bridge - the view is quite different on each side of the bridge, or you can be on a lower cliff to the right of the bridge, or on a higher cliff to the left of the bridge.

The photo below shows the bridge and the start of a hiking trail that probably leads to many more different views of the water. The two RV Gypsies did not choose to hike the trail.
