Ah titles....

A snowy log points N across Lake Louise and the peaks that don't get as much attention as the other 2 directions.

I believe we have Mt Whyte, Mt. Niblock, Devil's Thumb, Mt. St. Piran and the Beehive left to right.

Just a few of the Zillions (OK hundreds) of spectacular peaks along the Canadian Rockies.

Happy Friday!

I'm melting.......a record-setting week ahead with triple digit temps and a predicted high point of 114 here in Spokane. Never seen anything like this severe weather in the Pacific Northwest. With little relief coming for next couple weeks, at least. Gonna be a loooong scorching summer.

I needed a crisp, cool memory to chill me down some. Was so refreshing looking up the Lake Louise outlet on this stormy, snowy day. Wish I could step back into it.

ps: I've got several projects ahead and will reluctantly not be on flickr as much for the next few months. I'll miss the beauty and all of you.

May your week be comfortable and wonderful!

Looking down on the iconic, colorful glacial waters that make Lake Louise so beloved, and special.

"The reason for the difference? The turquoise lakes are fed by rivers where active glaciers are pushing through rocky valleys upstream. The glaciers function like bulldozers, grinding away and pulverizing rocks along valley floors and walls. The process produces a fine-grained powder of silt and clay—glacial flour—that is picked up by meltwater streams. Also known as rock flour or glacial silt. Since the particles are so fine, they are slow to sink to the bottom, remaining suspended in the water column instead."

Thank you for taking time to take a look!

Have a wonderful Spring weekend!
