The Canadian Rockies


     While I often laud the wonders of the Dolomite peaks in Northern Italy, there other mountain venues that have been special to me. My family had a cabin on the American River in California where I often explored the pool and falls.
      These photos are of the water falling in the Canadian Rockies especially in the area near Banff, Lake Louise and Jasper all in Alberta. While we roamed the area during the time it was warm in California, it was cool and mild there. The water was lovely. In the lakes, because of the glacial dust, the water is a blue-green. In many areas, as it moves in torrents, it is sparkling white.
     Water is ordinarily clear, but takes on many aspects of it environment.
