To us it was the time to leave Berg Lake when beauty of shy Mount Robson came out. We did couple more things before leaving. My friends, who never touch any glacier by any pieces of their body, went to the base of Robson glacier to fill out such a gap in their experience. In my turn, I decided to dedicate this morning to photographing Toboggan Fall. Yesterday we went down from Mumm Basin to Berg Lake passing by this fall, and it mesmerized me completely. Yesterday we saw it in deep twilight, so photo-session was impossible.
Toboggan fall is not a single huge flash, but cascades of big and small waterfalls on the way of Toboggan river though the rocks carved by water. When the water level is high, it should be fantastic view, but even at low water the fall is very graceful.

After two hours of full happiness, being face to face with Toboggan Fall, I met my buddies, and we headed down.

Good buy, Berg Glacier.

We came down to the Emperor Fall, the biggest waterfall around. Really impressive.

Views from behind the water wall.

White Fall. Here the sun smiled to me and a rainbow appeared.

Way to Kenny Lake.

We went down, found a place in the campground, discovered the hot shower, and fell asleep. The night was surprisingly warm.
