Spahats Creek Falls, Waterfall in Wells Gray Provincial Park, Canada.
Spahats Creek plunges 73 meters from a narrow hanging gorge into a wider canyon, creating a vertical drop through volcanic rock formations.
The name changed from Bear Creek Falls to Spahats Creek Falls in the 1960s due to numerous Bear Creek locations in British Columbia.
The term Spahats originates from First Nations language, referring to bears that inhabited the surrounding wilderness of British Columbia.
A five-minute walk from the parking area leads to multiple viewing platforms that provide different perspectives of the waterfall throughout all seasons.
The falls emerge from a V-shaped gorge carved through layers of volcanic rock formed by eruptions dating back 300,000 years.
