Mistaya Canyon Hike

On our way back from Wilcox Pass, we made a quick stop at Mistaya Canyon. It’s an easy 1km out and back trail that leads you to a thundering river canyon, so it’s big bang for your buck.

The trail heads down on a gentle slope until it reaches the bridge that crosses the canyon.

The rock formations in this narrow and deep canyon was quite gorgeous. (Get it? Gorge-ous?)

• Difficulty – easy
• View – great view of a river canyon
• Traffic volume – light
• Facilities – we forgot to check for toilets
• Overall score – 6/10 (by Rockies standards)
