Kootenay, Banff, Jasper and Yoho National Parks, Canada

Last June Rick and I took a fabulous road trip through several Canadian National Parks. We have been to Banff once before and fell in love with the magnificent rugged beauty. So we decided to go again; but to also stay longer and explore more parks. Needless to say it was a very good decision. We got to step on the Columbian Icefields in Jasper, walk on the glass bridge and see so much wildlife. We hope to get there again someday. It is so worth seeing many times over.

The Canadian Rockies are magnificent.
We were immediately greeted by the friendly Canadian black bear.

Beautiful Lake Louise

The beauty never stops.
Almost to the top of our hike
Yeah, it was worth it. The high mountain lake Agnes.

So many beautiful lakes and mountains galore.

I can't remember the name of this lake.

On the glass bridge in Jasper National Park. So cool. And yes, it was very cool even in June it felt like a bit of winter.

This was our favorite spot, Moraine Lake, in Banff.

These guys were awesome. I took this from the car. We stopped to watch them. I could have reached out and touched them, they were that close.
