Lake Louise in Banff park


went on a half hour gondola ride...95 clams for the privilige....a coke in the lodge was $3....

[dieseldawg142]

they have enclosed gondola's and open chairs. son and me managed to talk wife into an open chair, which surprised me and which she regretted right away. she got a little panicky a few times, had to keep mellowing her out, but she stuck it out, even with a death grip on the bar...and this is only about 20-30 feet off the ground


she did manage to spot another prairie dog down there.


as we were coming to the top, spied a grizzly up the hill further they were herding off with a couple trucks. at the top of the lift your kinda in an electronic pen. they have an electrified fence and an electrified bear strip on the ground surrounding the lift to keep out the wildlife, it's actually a common thing grizzlies wandering onto the hill.
not the best, a long distance shot i had to blow up the size

bah! smoke is coming back. can barely see Lake Louise


Moraine lake was closed, which made Lake louise even more bloody busy than usual. we decided to try L. Louise later
a pic of Moraine lake my wife took back in 2002...


....and how it looks if you get some decent weather...


Lake Louise as well

[dieseldawg142]

we left Lake Louise, figured we'd stop by on the way back, and headed up Jasper park to the Columbia Icefield, largest non-polar concentration of glaciers.
the smoke is starting to get heavy now, wife don't like it, hard and stinky to breathe. we even had some lite ash drift down on us from somewhere
hard to see the scenery....

[dieseldawg142]

sure would have been nice to see some blue sky...


puppy p break at Waterfowl lake. can barely see the 10 000 foot mountain in the background...
