Simpson Viewpoint
About halfway between Grizzly lake and Laryx Lake is this incredible lookout named: Simpson Viewpoint. The first time we hiked up here, the viewpoint was quite unexpected. The drop into the canyon is at least several hundred feet or so. Wow! Very windy as well. They say on a clear day you can see as far as the “continental divide”. What is the continental divide you ask? It is a natural boundary that separates the “drainage basins” of North America. Google it for more detailed info about it (or better yet use the Brave AI tool). Thanks for stopping by.

What amazing views you discover on your hikes! Thanks for sharing this beauty with us.
Canadian Rockies are fantastic, thanks for stopping by.
The face of that mountain/hill looks awesome.
It was super awesome and surprisingly windy!
The natural beauty is quite beautiful around the mountains. For today I say good afternoon and good wishes to all of us and hopefully the best will always be for us.
Indeed!
Beautiful! Now I feel to go out for a nature walk on the weekend.
You should. Have fun!
Lovely photography of nature at its best. The first pic no no doubt is so majetic, with huge mountains and the contrasting colours of the trees, the road and the sky.
"Majestic" is a good word to describe this view! Thanks for looking.
Thankyou

I do agree that from up there you can see far beyond the countryside views. Absolutely breathtaking if you ask me.
