Back from the Canadian Rockies

Lake Louise in late afternoon, September 2012, Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada.

Late last week I returned from a trip to the Canadian Rockies.  I have only seen mountains with glaciers one other time in my life.  That was for one day in the early 1970s when I was in Yosemite Park.  So, to see the mountains in Banff, Yoho and Jasper National Parks in Alberta and British Columbia was a profound experience.  I’ll be writing about that time over the next while.  But for now, here’s a photo of famous Lake Louise with its jeweled reflections that I took one late afternoon. There’s a reason Lake Louise is famous!
