2012 - Wells Grey Provincial Park, British Columbia, Canada
My brother-in-law Murray & I spent three days at Wells Grey Provincial Park located in central British Columbia. We started our journey along the south end of Clearwater Lake and canoed north until we found the campsite that we stayed at for the next two nights. In all, we spent three days canoeing/fishing. To my surprise, we did not catch any fish! Maybe next time!

Great Canadian Parks #4 - Wells Gray Provincial Park
This is the waterfalls park, one of the most magnificent parks in British Columbia and one of the best representations of a full mountain-top to valley-bottom slice of an ecosystem. Mountains run down the center of B.C.'s interior, exhibiting unique lava landforms, dramatic canyons, inspiring peaks and deep lakes.
Wells Grey Provincial Park Waterfalls in Canada
We only had a day up our sleeves in this area, so we did Spahats Falls in the late afternoon shortly after we arrived at our accommodation, then in the morning visited Helmcken and Dawson Falls before heading to Jasper.

Dawson Falls--66 ft drop across the Murtle River

Helmcken Falls May 2019 - Wells Gray Provincial Park: Clearwater, British Columbia
Last of the waterfall tour on my annual spring vacation stop in Wells Gray Provincial Park is the main attraction Helmcken Falls. Helmcken Falls is the fourth highest waterfall in Canada and is almost three times as tall as Niagara Falls in Ontario. This waterfall was the catalyst on creating Wells Gray Provincial Park originally and encompasses all the waterfalls seen in my waterfall tour. Like my other videos in my waterfall tour I've captured this with my Samsung Galaxy S9 Edge.

Helmcken Falls May 2018 - Wells Gray Provincial Park: Clearwater, British Columbia
Made it to the end of my waterfall tour in Wells Gray Provincial Park by capturing the main attraction Helmcken Falls. It's 47km away from Clearwater townsite but it's well, well worth the journey and effort to see the waterfalls. It's three times as tall as Niagara Falls and the fourth highest in all of Canada I understand. The formations of the valley and where the waterfall occurs is fascinating. Not too far of a hike from the parking lot to see the sight and have a picnic nearby if you so choose. This waterfall was the catalyst in creating Wells Gray Provincial Park. Was making the detour to Wells Gray Provincial Park from Kamloops and eventually on my way to Valemount. Like the other two waterfalls I've captured this with my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge.

Spahats Falls May 2018 - Wells Gray Provincial Park: Clearwater, British Columbia
Made a stop at Clearwater, British Columbia and toured the few waterfalls found within the Wells Gray Provincial Park area. First major waterfall is Spahats Falls about 10km away from the townsite and the main intersection at Yellowhead Highway 5. Impressive height when you approach plus the surrounding valley. Also saw another waterfall to the side when taking in the sight. Captured this with my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge.

Spahats Creek Falls - Wells Gray Provincial Park - British Columbia - Canada
Cascade Spahats- Parc provincial Wells Gray - Colombie-Britannique - Canada
Coordonnées GPS: 51°44'10.8N 120°00'50.9W
La cascade Spahats, d'une hauteur de 75 m, ressemble étrangement à la cascade Helmcken, mais en modèle réduit. Elle se situe également dans un canyon et s'écoule dans une gorge étroite et profonde pour se jeter ensuite dans la rivière Clearwater.
Elle est également facile d'accès puisqu'elle se situe à moins de 5 minutes de marche du stationnement.
C'est à partir de la plateforme d'observation qu'il est possible d'avoir une vue complètement dégagée de cette cascade.
Il y d'autres points de vue le long du sentier, mais la vue est plus ou moins obstruée par les arbres.
Un autre sentier part de la plateforme d'observation et conduit jusqu'à un belvédère surplombant la vallée de Clearwater (environ 15 minutes de marche). Malheureusement, ce sentier était fermé lors de notre visite.
