Taking Flight...

Monday, March 31, 2008

Pritha about to take flight off a cliff, Crowfoot Glacier, Icefields Parkway, north of Lake Louise, Alberta, Canada

We took a drive north of Lake Louise in Canada's beautiful Banff National Park in the Canadian Rockies. The Icefields Parkway takes visitors along an isolated stretch of road through many glaciers, mountains, and lakes up into Jasper National Park. This stop was a little of a disappointment since the glacier was covered with snow, making it hard to distinguish, but we were able to see some ice glistening in the sun in areas not covered with snowfall. We were not disappointed by the views, however. These areas contain perhaps the most beautiful winterscapes I have ever seen.
