Which waterfall was the best?
Was it the widest one in Wells Gray Provincial Park? Dawson Falls...
Dawson Falls is 350 feet wide... complete with three tiers of lava flows for a massive volume of water to hop, skip, and jump down the river.
Or was it the mere 70 meter tall Spahats Falls, seemingly more humble because it was...
eclipsed by the canyon through which it flows?
Or was it the jewel of Wells Gray -- the fourth tallest waterfall in Canada... Helmcken Falls at 141 meters?
Spewing an average of 3,800 cubic feet of water into the pool below, every second.
In my mind, the question of which waterfall was best is totally irrelevant... all three of the falls were unique and stunning, leaving me tired and happy, with only one remaining question.
Did all that water get tired from falling such a great distance and then rumbling down the river below, or was it just an ordinary days' work for all that H20?
Arthur Wellesley Gray was a Canadian politician (1876-1944) who had a lot to do with creating many provincial parks in Canada... those parks which now host a very large gaggle of tourists every year from Canada, U.S., and other countries around the world.
Thank you Mr. Gray.
God's creations are stunning and incredible. Appreciate the commentary. Very informative and "creative". {Marilyn}
