Peace and tranquility

Peace and tranquility
This was my main destination this afternoon, Forgetmenot Pond, off Elbow Falls Trail (Highway 66), Kananaskis. I had noticed two or three days that had tiny snowflake icons on the weather forecast chart, so thought I'd better get into K-Country while I could drive on dry, clear roads. Takes about 50 minutes to reach this spot, which really isn't too bad. I did notice a few patches of snow just off the road, shortly before I reached this lake, and the path around the lake was somewhat muddy, from melted snow I would guess. Not many people this time, which is so much nicer. A little hazy over the mountains and the sun was in the wrong place (which happens every time I drive out there!), but at least the water was calm enough to create some reflections.

Thanks, Art! I've just got home from a 3-hour birding walk with friends in Fish Creek Park and they were talking about the centimetres of snow that we are supposed to get tomorrow. Yuck! I am SOOO not ready for this! This morning started off pretty chilly, but closer to noon it sure warmed up. Yes, Calgary's weather is definitely crazy! But, just look at the scenery we get : )
