On our trip from Banff to Jasper we came across so many beautiful places it was tough to choose which ones to put on the blog.  The one above has the Athabasca River in the forefront.  It comes from the Athabasca Icefields.  Water from this area goes to the Pacific, Atlantic, and into the Arctic Oceans.  Hard to believe, but true.We liked this one so much we put it in twice.  Truth is we don't yet know how to delete it.  :-)

This is a rock pile and remnants of a glacier.  When they put the road in, they went right though it.  The rocks near the road are cleaner and pink in color.  We figured it must be from the salt put on the road that has cleaned the rocks.

This is taken from Bow Lake in the Bow Valley north of Banff.  What a beautiful place.

One of the beautiful peaks on the mountains surrounding Bow Valley.  Jan took this photo with the zoom lens.  The clouds and sun cause interesting colors and textures on the mountain.
