Several views from Parker Ridge Trail. The Saskatchewan Glacier can be seen in the far right of iamge A-1. The river cutting through the valley is the head of the Saskatchewan River that begins at the mouth of the glacier. Parker Ridge is located on the west side of the icefield parkway highway in Banff National Park in Alberta, between Lake Louise and Jasper. This trail has breathtaking views and is best hiked in the summer when the trail is dry. In some images, Mt. Athabaska and Hilda Peak are visible where Hilda Glacier is seen at the base of Mt. Athabasca.
