Lakes Louise and Moraine

I have no words to describe the magnificence of Lake Louise, Lake Moraine, and this whole area from Jasper to Banff. I can say that this, by far, has been the most beautiful, picturesque area I have ever seen.  Even on a mostly cloudy day with off and on rain, it is stunning here. Mountains soaring, glaciers to numerous to count, abundant forests, babbling brooks and creeks, canyons, and of course, the most stunning and uniquely colored lakes and rivers. This area has it all.  

Lake Louise, mountains wrapping around her with a glacier as her back drop, and the hotel standing guard next to her. image image I only wish the color of the water showed. It was cloudy, with occasional patches of blue skies. We needed to dodge rain showers, so the water is not vibrant.

The neon turquoise water of Lake Moraine were being enjoyed by kayakers and fisherman alike.  image     image Having dinner here overlooking the lake is very romantic.image  image    image    Does it get any better than this? God just keeps on giving gifts.
