Coral Creek Canyon Trail/Cline River Trail Kiska/Wilson PLUZ, Alberta

Still to the east of Icefields Parkway the Cline river feeds into the N. Saskatchewan river. You’ll hike above the canyons carved over time by the Cline for 2 miles before heading back while seeing 3 or 4 waterfalls (still frozen at time of hike) and have sweeping views of Sentinel mountain. On the return, you can come back the way you came (recommended) or return via a horse trail that loses the majority of the view. Hiked 5/21

The Cline river flows away from Sentinel Mountain before cutting its way into the canyon below.

The Cline river cut through this ridge over time, creating the entrance to a slot canyon. The stream quickly redirects itself as it hammers into the cliff wall.

The still frozen waterfall shows some life as a small trickle finds its way out the lower section. There were 3 or 4 still frozen falls along the trail. Black and white.

The Cline river exits a slot canyon with Sentinel mountain off in the distance.
