Hoodoos at Canmore
While my daughter and I were in Canmore last summer, we climbed the hill behind the hotel to see the hoodoos. There were only a few, but it was well worth the climb. They do look very different from the ones in the Drumheller area.
Lake Minnewanka
I’m still going through photos from our trip to Banff this past summer. When we finished the trip to Mount Norquay, we visited Lake Minnewanka. This is a very beautiful lake and would be good to revisit. It is 21 km long, so we only saw one very small part. They have boat cruises going […]
Mount Norquay, Banff, Alberta
Last summer, my daughter and I went to Mount Norquay, overlooking Banff. She went to climb the mountain, and I went to take photos. Both of us really enjoyed ourselves.
Scenery around Banff
I really enjoyed visiting Banff this summer. We were able to go up in the Banff gondola, and the chairlift at Mount Norquay. Each of these places give great opportunities to see the mountains around Banff. I especially enjoyed watching the lighting change on the mountains because of the cloud cover.

Moraine Lake
Before going to Lake Louise, we decided to make a trip to Moraine Lake since it was so close. The colour of the lake is an amazing blue-green colour. I was amazed at how many people were there. We were told to make sure we got there before 10:00 in the morning so that we […]
Rocky Mountain Scenes
Some views from our trip into the Rocky Mountains.
Canmore, Alberta – Grassi Lakes Trail
When you climb the Grassi Lakes Trail, you get a great view of Canmore, Alberta and the mountains. It’s an interesting climb and well worth the effort. I didn’t find it the easiest climb, but I was glad I did it. There is an easier trail you can go on, but the views on the […]
Canmore, Alberta – Policeman’s Creek Boardwalk
My daughter and I visited Canmore recently. One of the walks we went on was called Policeman’s Creek Boardwalk. This was an enjoyable walk and a good introduction to the mountains and Canmore. Beautiful views. This is definitely an area that shows the beauty of God’s creation.
