The creek flows South-Southeast, and parallels the Icefields Parkway for part of its course. It joins the North Saskatchewan River near the Big Bend. It plummets over Bridal Veil Falls before entering the North Saskatchewan. Nigel Creek is named after Nigel Vavasoeur, a packer who accompanied early climbing expeditions in the region.[1]
