1. Mile Zero: the big white “Mystery Rock”<br />
symbolizes Mile Zero of the Icefields<br />
Parkway and the 2700 km Highway 93<br />
route to Wickenburg, Arizona.<br />
2. Athabasca Falls: water plunges off a<br />
quartzite plateau through softer limestone,<br />
carving out a spectacular collection of<br />
potholes and powerful white water.<br />
3. Sunwapta Falls Rocky Mountain Lodge:<br />
whether looking for an overnight stop, a<br />
gourmet lunch, or simply a roadside pit<br />
stop, make sure to visit both Sunwapta<br />
Falls and the resort, even if it’s only to<br />
meet Sunwapta Sam.<br />
4. Icefields Centre: trade in your personal<br />
vehicle for a seat on the massive Brewster<br />
Ice Explorer and experience the Athabasca<br />
Glacier from atop the ice.<br />
5. Wickenburg, Arizona: the Icefields Parkway<br />
is only the start of the journey; Highway 93<br />
is the ultimate long-haul route to the<br />
southern US and it has plenty of highlights,<br />
including Las Vegas, the Hoover Dam, and<br />
the historical Lewis and Clark trail.<br />
