Clues:

1. The area surrounding this 25-foot-high waterfall has undergone multiple mountain-building events. The falls erode the granite that intruded into this national park’s predominately metamorphic (slate, schist and gneiss) mountain range following the first building event.

2. During the Cretaceous and Jurassic, dinosaurs roamed this area, which was then a balmy tropical wetland. During the last several ice ages, glaciers filled the mountain valleys, leaving behind a creek flowing into these provincially named falls.

3. Weather changes frequently in the park. Sunny summer mornings often give way to fierce afternoon thunderstorms. This picture was taken in August. That afternoon, a snowstorm struck high on a nearby peak popular with hikers.

Clues:

1.This natural lake lies within one of the oldest national parks in the world. The town that shares the same name as the park sprung up after discovery of nearby hot springs.

2. The lake is fed by meltwater from a glacier of the same name. The glacier created a terminal moraine during the last glacial period that acts as a natural dam, holding in the milky, turquoise waters. The mountains surrounding the lake primarily comprise thick shale and limestone layers.

3. The area’s annual temperatures range from 30 degrees Celsius in the summer to negative 30 degrees Celsius in the winter.
