Just stopped raining for our tour group to view and is was just beautiful. Quite peaceful and restful when you are so close to the highway. Got some great photos on our canadian tour.

Was there two times: early winter and late winter. On early winter it's pretty fog and the waterfall isn't that impressive, 'cause of the amount of water. On late winter wasn't that fog anymore and the frozen water around the river has already melted, what makes the falls bigger and beautiful. It's a beautiful view to stand at the point... More

Park your car, walk about 5 min and see this nice waterfall. You can go up some stairs and become a better view. The air is wet in this place: you can probably cool down on a hot day here. There are plenty of banks for pick-nicking and also restrooms (the better ones are only opened in the season). Be... More

The waterfall was easily accessible from the car park which is good for a short stop off on a chilly day!

It was a rainy day in Vancouver, but we decided to hit the road anyway and see a little bit of Canada outside of the city. The Sea-to-Sky Highway we took was a beautiful drive with spectacular views of ocean and mountains on one side and cliff wall covered with forest on the other. The heavy clouds and fog on... More

First, the fall is stunning. There are two great views. One from the bottom and one a bit up a semi-paved path with about 40 steps. The one up the path will hit you with a bit of mist - refreshing or chilly depending on the weather outside. I could spend an hour just watching the cascading water and hearing... More

Pleasant to go on a beautiful sunny day! The walk in is very easy. I suggest not going the paved route and taking the gravel route as you get to see more.
