Wapiti Campground.

You have the choice of branching off onto Highway 93A. It is a quieter
and scenic but a narrower road that re-joins the main highway at Athabasca Falls.
The distance is about the same, but 93A has a very steep climb (150 meters/500 feet)
before heading down to the falls. Highway 93 however, has more gentle hills.
