Bridal Falls - A Site to Behold - Hope - Chilliwack - B.C.

Beautiful Bridal Falls is another one of those places I have driven by a dozen times a month, and yet its been 25 years since I last took the time to take the small hike and revel in their splendor. Monday my daughter Sarah and I decided to take a mid-morning. Now Sarah is a hiker extraordinaire.....and she said.......'mom its a gross exaggeration to say this is a hike!'..ummm yeah aha..

What she didn't question though was the their incredible beauty...and fortunately the "DANGER do not go beyond this point Signs" DID deter her from climing all the way up them......

I told you she was an avid hiker but did I tell you she was like the wind?

Decided to Try this one in sepia...

And a Monchromatic Blue/Black..............

Black and White.....

... Tumbling over a smooth rock face, creating a "veil-like" effect.

And in all its Beautiful Glory!

Years ago - on the first day of my honeymoon - we made a quick stop here - thinking how apropo.......Honeymoon/Bridal........you know? Long time ago.....

At any rate... Bridal Falls is the Sixth Highest Falls in Canada....Its nestled at the foot of Mount Cheam.........with a drop of 400 feet to the valley floor at Bridal Falls Provincial Park - the falls flow into Bridal Creek and then make their way to Cheam Lake Regional Nature Park and the Fraser River.

It truly is a sight to behold........pack a picinic, bring a blanket & don't forget your blanket!

Thanks for sharing the pictures. I have been to different parts of Canada but not to Bridal Veil Falls.It looks beautiful.

Liz...

I was taken aback when I read the title, as there is also a Bridal Veil Falls in N.C> as well as B.C. Nice photos, I enjoyed taking the trip with you and Sarah.

These photos are awesome!! Great day out with your lovely Sarah!

Liz - nice shots, this is one of the Bridal Veil Falls that I haven't been to, Next time near Chilliwack I will be sure to stop by. There are also Bridal Veil Falls in Oregon, New York, Utah, Colorada, California,.......

Liz, I love your photo's and what a nice way to spend some time with your daughter. What kind of camera do you use? I love the different effects.

Liz, I like coming to your blog. It's like a brain-vacation. Love the beautiful and interesting places you feature.

The pictures are gorgeous. Thanks for sharing it with us. It makes me want to pack a bag!

Gorgeous! We have Bridal Veil Falls here and it's very similar. They put a tiny post office there and brides from all over the state of Oregon make the journey to have their wedding invitations postmarked with that name.

Your daughter is adorable!

Liz, you just have this "awesome" nature all around you. I like how you varied the colors with your incredible (as always) photos. Isn't their also a Bridal Veil falls in Yosemite in California?

awesome pics Liz. I love the B&W

Liz, what fabulous photos. I have never seen Bridal Falls in Canada but it looks spectacular and you captured so many great shots. Does the fall freeze during the Winter. I bet that is equally spectacular. Thanks for sharing it with those of us who have never had the opportunity to see it.

Gita - its a sort of 'one the way' place - not usually a destination place - but it is next to Dinotown! :-)

Hey Richard - thanks! Apparently there are Bridal Veil Falls all across the continent!

Susan Thank you - I love spending time with her -she always makes me laugh (ok well not always, lol)

Mike - thanks! We're not that ingenious are we -at least with our 'naming' :-)

Hi Debbie - yeah.......well she was listing all these other 3-4 hr hikes we should go on.....and I said something like, a cold day in h*&^....lol......My camera is a Panasonic - Lumix DMC-FX35........I read he reviews on A/R and its the Realtor's Camera - 25mm wide angle - so great for taking photos of those smal bathrooms! ;-)

Charlie - thanks so much - although I hope its not always a 'brain vacation'! lol......although I think I know what you meant! :-)

Oh Melody - well you can come and pack a bag anytime! Thanks..:-)

Jennifer B - Oh isn't that romantic....! I remember going to a the town of "Hell" in the Grand Cayman's - people did that there to, but not for wedding invitations........although.......hmmm......:-)

Gary - thank you - you know me an my camera - i think its my most valuable possession (not $$) :-) and yes there is in Yosemite.......and a wee bit more majestic!

Gene - I love playing with Sepia and Black and Whites - I haven't done it much lately but I'd like to..Thanks!

Gena - you know I read that it does.......but I haven't seen them then.....what I have seen frozen though is the Niagara Falls - and those are SPEC-TAC-ULAR! Thanks for visiting and commenting..:-)

Liz - "When", no longer if, we get to BC you will absouletly have to be our tour guide ... You know all the great places to visit for all the best photos, things to see and things to do.

So cool! I am falling in love with your little neck of the woods. I'm a nature lover...anything real and green gets my attention. I have recurring dreams of disappearing into the mountains with just my sketchpad and charcoals...and just drawing for days. My hubby is MUCH too protective to let me, though...and he can't be away from technology for more than 24 hours without having withdrawals.

GBU, my friend! :-)

Liz - What breaktaking photos! I could almost feel the spray of the falls! I had the opportunity to visit Niagra Falls about 10 years ago on both the U.S. and Canadian side and came away speechless. There is nothing more beautiful in the world.

Nice blog Liz. You have a great touch for the photos.

Kathy -(& Barry )- would welcome you and love to show you around!

Well Elizabeth - tell him I'll keep and eye on you and come on down girl! :-0)

Donna - I think that Niagara Falls is listed as one of the Wonders of the World - (modern day that is) so you're in good company! :-)

Steven - thats because I'm addicted to my camera :-) thanks...

On being #2, and what beautiful waterfalls, they bring good luck!

Jane you're a sweetheart...I knew it from the start! Thank you! ;-) I'll start blowing up yours right now!

These are amazing photos... I need to play with my settings more!

Also, I did get my write up and photo up :)

Amber

Amber - If I'd just once read the user's manual for my camera - I'm sure I'd discover a whole other world of settings and options! I'll go check your update! :-)

Liz your pictures are beautiful. I have always loved wtaerfalls. I haven't found any yet here - but we had several in Pennsylvania where I used to live :)

Kara - I haven't seen a waterfall that wasn't breathtaking......there must be some in the Carolinas!
