Moored tour boats on Maligne Lake in Jasper National Park, Rocky Mountains, Alberta, Canada.
Moored tour boats on Maligne Lake in Jasper National Park, Rocky Mountains, Alberta, Canada. The lake was well known to First Nations of the area, including Samson Beaver, who knew it as Chaba Imne (Beaver Lake). Maligne Lake is the largest lake in Jasper National Park. The valley in which the lake lies was carved and excavated by valley glaciers, and the lake has been dammed at its northern end by an end moraine deposited by the last glacier, which flowed down the valley towards the Athabasca River. The lake is located 44 km (27 mi) south of Jasper town. Jasper National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
