Randomly looking at pictures of a Lake (Either Lake Banff, Moiraine or Louise? All three? It's unclear which pictures are which.) in Banff Natl. Park in Alberta Canada. All I can say is "Wow"! What an absolutely beautiful wilderness location. The US has some great ones as well, but I can't recall seeing any pictures as striking as the ones I'm looking at right now. The Glacier backdrop is amazing. Maybe someday I will be able to visit.:smiley1:
Lake Louise is in Banff National Park. The copper content of the water gives the lake a unique colour. The usual view is from Chateau Lake Louise - this pic shows the Chateau in foreground/Lake in background Attachment 4061
You'd enjoy yourself immensely I'm sure!
You will want to travel from Banff to Jasper (or the other direction) along the parkway. There's a lot to see and usually, ton's of critters.
I'd been through a couple times before marrying my wife and moving to northern Alberta from Saskatchewan (next province east of AB) but since then, I've been through it probably a half dozen times on our way south to visit her family (well, mine too........lol) in the US. I love the trip and since we're always hauling our trailer, we camp at least one night along the parkway somewhere.
If you have the time, a trip west through the rocky's is always beautiful too!
Just did an Alaskan cruise in June - stunning views like that all over Alaska and Canada. Some of e most incredibly beautiful areas i'be ever been. It was definitely worth the Trip!Quote:
