James Bruce Falls, Waterfall in Princess Louisa Marine Provincial Park, Canada
James Bruce Falls cascades down 840 meters through steep cliffs, making it the highest waterfall in Canada and eighth tallest in the world.
The waterfall bears the name of a 19th-century explorer who contributed to mapping sections of British Columbia's remote wilderness regions.
The waterfall flows through protected lands that preserve natural ecosystems and supports local wildlife in the Canadian wilderness.
Access to James Bruce Falls requires boat transportation through Princess Louisa Inlet or hiking through marked trails in the provincial park.
Two parallel streams form the falls, one permanent and one seasonal, both fed by a snowfield at the summit of the cliffs.
