Detail map of the Waterton Lakes region of Canada in relation to Glacier National Park in Montana. Sky blue waters show Upper Waterton Lake extending from the southeast edge of the map and funneling through a narrow channel into a wedge of Middle Waterton Lake in the northeast corner.

Extended Description

Shown in beige, the surrounding landscape is threaded with brown roads, scattered with gray dashed trails, and dotted with notable sites. Beginning in the northeast, a brown line locates Akamina Parkway as it slopes southeast toward the lakes alongside a gray dashed trail to the north and the slithering sky-blue strand of Cameron Creek to the south. Text at the west end reads, “To Cameron Lake,” while the east end terminates at Evergreen Avenue, which runs roughly north to south.

Heading north from Akamina Parkway, Evergreen Avenue first passes a brown spur that runs east to Prince of Wales National Historic Site with food service and lodging along the lake. On the opposite side of the road, a gray dashed trail zigzags southwest to a point labeled, “Bears Hump, 5059 feet (1542 meters),” before continuing north past Linnet Lake and on towards Highway 6. A gray dashed trail loops around the smaller lake, which sits alongside the western bank of Middle Waterton Lake.

Heading south from Akamina Parkway, Evergreen Avenue passes a grid of brown roads before terminating at Cameron Falls Drive. Heading east, this road travels past the Visitor Information Centre with information desk, bookstore/gift shop, restrooms, and amphitheater on its way toward the water. At this end, it intersects with Waterton Avenue, which runs north along Upper Waterton Lake to a boat tour and rental site and south to the edge of Cameron Creek. The western end of Cameron Falls Drive veers south, crossing Cameron Creek before passing a gray dashed trail that runs west along the water. From here, restrooms sit along a spur off the road before it continues on past a gray area that marks a townsite around Cameron Creek with restrooms, a picnic area, and a campground.

Extending from a narrow grid of roads just west of Cameron Falls Road, a gray dashed trail meanders to the southern edge of the map with text that reads, “To Bertha Lake and Glacier National Park.”
