Majerus Falls, Waterfall in Wells Gray Provincial Park, British Columbia, Canada
Located on the Murtle River, Majerus Falls spans 90 meters in width and drops 12 meters, creating a wide cascade in the natural landscape.
Joseph Hunter, a Canadian Pacific Railway surveyor, first documented this waterfall during his expedition on May 25, 1874 while mapping the region.
The falls and nearby lake received their name from Michael Majerus, an early settler who built his cabin beside the Murtle River above Dawson Falls.
The falls require a 10-kilometer hiking trail journey from Pyramid Campground, following the north side of the Murtle River through the provincial park.
This waterfall forms part of a system of seven distinct cascades along the Murtle River, west of Murtle Lake in eastern British Columbia.
