:) A waterfall splashes down the side of “the Canadian Rockies” in EPCOT. But, hey – what’s that up there on that ledge?

Wow, it’s shoes! Did someone go swimming, perhaps? Or did some Rocky Mountain hiker drop them from on high? Or maybe this is the handiwork of some rather high-spirited Walt Disney World guests. I doubt I’ll ever find out! My friend Deb first spotted them, and then I confirmed it with my 10x optical zoom. Fun stuff!

    Great pics. I never saw those boots! Canada was one place we did not spend too much time! Although it was always beautiful on the way by!

    I think the owner of the shoes is lazy to put that in the garbage or maybe he forgot to wear his shoes again, hehehe joke only…

    How funny! I’ve never noticed them …I wonder if they are a prop or real and the owner got whisked away by the Goof Troop before he could get them back on!

    I’ll bet the Disney crew has those shoes gone by now! Disney parks are always such clean places.

    Beatiful pictures and your camera must be very powerful to capture the shoes so well from that far…Christine

    Wow…did you check for a body? I’m joking. Interesting picture. A hiker would NEED his shoes in that terrain. You could right..could be a joke..still..

    Howdy Tink…you are so lucky to be able to visit Disneyworld so much. Those shoes are a mystery. Nice job on the post.

    Knowing Disney, I believe these shoes are part of the props…notice the positioning of the soles. If you look, you will find features like this all over the parks. When my boys were younger, we used to have contests to see who could find unusual props in all the parks. I’ve been visiting Disney World since the first summer it opened…and I still enjoy it! Of course, living only an hour away…and with the FL resident discounts, it’s a great place to spend the day. Great photo!

    How funny. And great eyes to spot them! I love Epcot, after the Animal Kingdom it’s my favorite part of Disney. Happy Outdoor Wednesday.

    You started my day with a big smile. I never would have noticed the shoes had you not caught them on camera. The exhibit is lovely. I hope you are having a wonderful day.

    I bet they are some sort of prop as well. Looks like quite a toss from where you are standing…the odds of getting them to land just perfectly is about zero. My other thought is that they were from a worker scrubbing the rocks, but then why would he leave them behind?

    Looks almost as if someone went swimming headfirst and never came up, except that it appears so shallow. Funny.
