Waterfall Safety and Common Sense

Cameron Falls was a pretty easy waterfall to visit considering it was pretty much right in the town of Waterton.

Although we were able to view the falls from its well developed viewing area and bridge upon first showing up, it was a bit cold, windy, and misty which hastened our visit.

It also didn’t help that we were here quite late in the afternoon and well into the evening, which further conspired to shorten that first visit.

So it was for that reason that I didn’t do any more exploring or looking for other ways to experience this waterfall, and that included the walk that went up above the Cameron Falls.

I had read somewhere that the falls were typically floodlit at night, but we were a bit lazy and didn’t confirm that claim.

In any case, Cameron Falls seemed to have better light in the morning.

However, since we had just completed the Lower Bertha Falls hike and were on our way to Glacier National Park, we didn’t take the time to take more photos of the falls in its morning state.

The photo you see on these pages were all taken from the early evening in September 2010.
