Saskatchewan River Crossing

Travel Guide

Just a short drive from The Crossing resort on the Icefields Parkway is the Howse Pass Viewpoint, you can just relax here and watch the Saskatchewan River flow through the valley.  There is also a hike here but it’s a 24km gruelling one for the fit! #Nature
As we left the snowy, wet, cloudy mountains of the Columbia Icefields Parkway behind, and turned east towards the praiaires of Alberta, we were greeted with beautiful, warm sunshine! This shot was taken somewhere east of Saskachewan River Crossing along the David Thompson Highway (HWY 11).
