Keep your eyes peeled for this colourful 'pond' while driving the Yellowhead Highway (16) to and from Jasper. It is fed by underground springs, the water is crystal clear!

There is a parking lot on the eastbound side of the highway, about 200m before the pond. A narrow trail along the highway leads to the shoreline.

A Parks Canada parks pass is required to explore Jasper National Park ($22/day for a vehicle of up to 7 people).
