Meadow Falls, Waterfall in Wells Gray Provincial Park, British Columbia, Canada
Meadow Falls drops 8 meters on the Murtle River, with several marshes along its slow-moving sections known as The Stillwater.
Joseph Hunter, a Canadian Pacific Railway surveyor, discovered the waterfall during his exploration of the region on May 26, 1874.
The Murtle River received its name from Joseph Hunter's Scottish birthplace, Milton of Murtle, near Aberdeen, reflecting early settlers' heritage.
The waterfall remains inaccessible to most visitors due to the absence of maintained trails and the presence of difficult marsh terrain.
Meadow Falls belongs to a system of seven consecutive waterfalls on the Murtle River, including Helmcken Falls and Dawson Falls.
