Mount Edith Cavell (Jasper National Park) by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: It had been many a year since I'd last seen and walked around taking in the views of this mountain. For this image, I zoomed in to capture the peak itself but also a little bit around of the ridge lines and nearby peaks. Kind of like a view across the glacial valley to the mountains beyond...

Happy to Be Here (Jasper National Park) by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: While walking along the Maligne Canyon Trail with a view looking to the south-southwest in Jasper National Park. My thought on composing this image was to take advantage of a clearing in the forest to my front and capture a view looking across this portion of the national park. I liked how the open area sloped down and away from me to create more of a sweeping view, leading up to the more distant ridges and peaks of the Trident Range. I later worked with control points in DxO PhotoLab 6 and then made some adjustments to bring out the contrast, saturation and brightness I wanted for the final image.

Jasper National Park, AB (No. 7)

Attractions that can easily be reached by road include the Mount Edith Cavell hiking area, Maligne Lake (which features hiking and boating opportunities), Maligne Canyon, Miette Hot Springs, Pyramid Lake, the Jasper Skytram and the Athabasca Glacier, (an outlet glacier of the Columbia Icefield which features snow coach tours). The Marmot Basin ski area is the most popular winter attraction in the park.

Common summer recreational activities in the park include hiking, fishing, mountain biking (in select areas), wildlife viewing, rafting, kayaking and camping. Winter activities include Alpine skiing, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. Some companies offer dog sled tours in the park.

Only a small fraction of the parks area is road accessible. The rest forms a large backcountry area which is largely only accessible by trail. Large areas of the backcountry are rarely visited as many areas' trails are poorly maintained or non existent. Access into the backcountry is most often accomplished by backpacking or horseback and in rare cases kayak or raft. Popular backcountry trips include the Tonquin Valley, the Skyline Trail, Jones Pass, Jacques Lake and the Fryatt Valley. The remote North Boundary Trail which provided access to the north half of the park is a multiweek backpacking trip. Canoe and kayaking access to the backcountry can be achieved on Maligne Lake.
