Where to Backcountry camp near a waterfall
 

Hey Guys,
does anyone have any suggestions for back country camping by a waterfall somewhere within a 150-200km (to trail head) of calgary or same distance around red deer.

looking at 1 or two night-er
not scared of a hard hike in.
any suggestions welcome.
This forum has always come up with the goods for me in the past! thanks guys!


thanks!

Takakkaw Falls area.

Yes Takakaw falls near Field BC in Yoho national park. Absolutely stunning spot.

You could hike up to Twin Falls from Takaka Falls too. Bit more remote.

Ruby?

I was out by Mundare and son ma gun..... ducks , geese, all kinds waterfoul around over there.

If you want to camp beside nice waterfoul you go by Mundare...real nice Waterfoul around there.

Park @ the south gates to Highway 40, 6-7 km hike into Cat Creek falls. Maybe not the best choice if you aren't somewhat bear savvy.........:thinking-006:

Ribbon creek/falls, about 11km into falls, do a bit of a scramble with help from chains by the falls and camp above at the lake, pretty flat up the creek until you get to the falls so not too bad

thanks everyone! ill take a look at them all

:sHa_shakeshout:

Here's another not many see and it's within a km of #940

You can randam camp at Takakaw? Man, that would be beautiful.

I don't know about random camping there. I kinda doubt it.
Worth the hike though!!!

I know that one. Interesting that I saw a pair birds nesting the rocks there.

Is that code for something else...... :scared0015:

Always Crescent Falls, west of Nordegg. None of those in the Park restrictions.

Grizz

Lol ..no....but there are cutties

I always enjoyed the Waiporous Creek. A lot of people camp on the south side of the river, but if you park and walk upstream a bit you can get away from the crowds pretty easily. It's beautiful too.

Care to share whereabouts this is?
