Morning Sun

It the dawn of a lovely day with my roomie Sarah.

Too early for the falls. It is cold and wet.

They mantel themselves in mystical fog.

It is said that due to forest fires there is a lot of smoke and dust in the air which tints the sunlight.


The sun turns the river to gold.

Hemp in the middle of nowhere.

No it is not of course.

But wouldn't be that entertaining?!

Peyto Lake

Peyto Lake (pea-toe) is a glacier-fed lake located in Banff National Park in the Canadian Rockies. It was named for Ebenezer William Peyto, an early trail guide and trapper in the Banff area.
The lake is formed in a valley of the Waputik Range, between Caldron Peak, Peyto Peak and Mount Jimmy Simpson, at an elevation of 1,860 m (6,100 ft).[

Moraine Lake

Herbert Lake - Along the Icefields Parkway to Jasper.

Picturesque.

See how the lake mirrors the mountains?


Moraine Lake is a glacially fed lake in Banff National Park, 14 kilometres (8.7 mi) outside the Village of Lake Louise, Alberta, Canada. It is situated in the Valley of the Ten Peaks, at an elevation of approximately 6,183 feet (1,885 m). The lake has a surface area of 0.5 square kilometres (0.19 sq mi).
The lake, being glacially fed, does not reach its crest until mid to late June. When it is full, it reflects a distinct shade of blue. The color is due to the refraction of light off the rock flour deposited in the lake on a continual basis.

True - was here at the end of March and the water level was much lower.

Sarah and I rented a canoe and had a great time discovering the lake from the water side.

Still snow around even though it is a gorgeous day warm nice and everything.

Glaciers and stuff.

Hihihi.

Blue oh so beautiful blue.

A look into the distance.

Moraine Lake II

Nice.

Chipmunks are small squirrel-like rodents of the genus Tamias.

Same day but totally different light.

Dusk. Castle Mountain Lookout.

Sun's going down.

Man the sign said 3,7 km. I swear it were at least 5km!

Had to turne around since I started swaying.

Sunset of a glorious day.

Rafting on the Kicking Horse River

Early off we went to go rafting.

Chuck a kiwi guy and one of the guides who surprised me
by taking a pic of himself without me knowing...



Sarah and I in front of the Canadian Rockies Rafting Bus.

In those boats did we raft the river down.

The river looks pretty tame here. We did grade 2-3 whitewater rafting though.

Down "Shot gun" and "Roller coaster".

Some kajaks which did the same ride...
