Day 30 - Columbia Icefields - Jasper Provential Park, Alberta
The Columbia Icefields are huge, covering over 200 square miles. It consists of a number of different glaciers. This picture shows one small glacier, called Athabasca. This is the most visited glacier in the world. To get some idea of it’s size, notice the people in the lower right walking to and on the glacier. Also notice the bus in the middle left. Remember, this is one of the smaller glaciers in the field. To see the balance of the Icefields you would have to go by helicopter.
