Alberta Falls | Breaux | Glacier Gorge

The History of Alberta Falls by Tim Breaux

In Glacier Gorge the waters deepen
And icy currents travel
Past loch of lore and misty vale
With trails and tales to fashion

As names and fame passed by the way
Where Abner found and settled
Near smoke and lake and cabin hailed
His wife, his love, his passion

Upon the torrent he cast her name
And all who passed would marvel
For the one for whom Alberta’s fame
And name rest on the chasm

All paint or view her rock and spruce
Where sound and waters revel
And new names hike up to the vale
With hopes and dreams to fathom
