Yoho National Park occupies the western slope of the Continental Divide in British Columbia and contains some of the most dramatic vertical terrain in the Canadian Rockies. Takakkaw Falls, fed by the Daly Glacier above, drops 254 metres in a single plunge making it among the tallest waterfalls in Canada. The Burgess Shale fossil sites, a UNESCO World Heritage locality preserving 508-million-year-old Cambrian marine organisms in exceptional detail, lie within the park.
