Natural Bridge
Posted By: daacon, 05-08-2012, 06:56 AM

After we left Lake Louise and since Moraine Lake road was closed we headed to our furthest western point on this trip, Field , BC, Yoho National Park. This is the Natural Bridge. Parks Canada had it 'closed' as well , however it's a very short walk from the road and all that closed meant is the place you normally park was chained off. So we parked on the shoulder off we went.

Here is the Natural Bridge - a rock formation bridging over the icy waters of the Kicking Horse River



The water was very fast and cold (I believe the average temps are 3 degrees Celsius - glacier fed river as most mountain rivers are here) I like the combination of new spring growth, snow scattered throughout and of course the mountains in the background









This is looking down stream - fresh air, Mountain views and Rivers - great way to spend the day.

Nice! I really like #2 and #3. Where in BC is it? We were up there near 2 years ago.

Thanks GeoJerry - access is right off Highway 1 near the Alberta border , it is just west of a Town called Field BC (maybe 3km) and about 80km east of Golden BC. It's called the Natural Bridge same road as a place called Emerald Lake (another go to spot if you are in the area).
