Take a pinch of Millennia, grind a few megatons of Rock and add melted Glacier to taste…

30 August 2014   Simmer at low temperatures and you get Moraine Lake.

Spectacular.

At 6181’ above sea level you might want to drive here. Everybody else did this day. By the time we left the park staff were blocking the entry road because there were no parking spaces left.

Sometimes I will add brightness to darker shots. Resisted the temptation to fool around with these pictures with the exception of blurring out faces.

 

Of course there were canoe rentals. The newbies zigzagged around the lake.

More fun to watch than do here since there is so much to see and there are lots of trails. And there are lessons:

Weather ain’t boring in the mountains. Bright sun succumbed to clouds and rain in almost a heartbeat as we neared the end of the lake. No big deal though – sun returned in 15 minutes.

Go to Lake Louise if you wish. Should be on every bucket list. But while you’re in the area do not miss this spectacular body of water – the colours you see here are unfiltered and untouched – just as the camera saw them.

This is called the rockpile

Looking down from the rockpile

I am the king of the rockpile. Big deal.

OK back to your laundry – I think I heard the dryer buzz.
