Red Rock Canyon Parkway, located in Waterton Lakes

Red Rock Canyon Parkway, located in Waterton Lakes National Park, is an adventure in itself. So many beautiful hikes and viewpoints along this valley. Always a must when we visit this beautiful place.
These pictures are from our visit in July 2020.

The wise wizard Koda wishes everyone a safe and happy Halloween 🎃 😻🎃
Instead of carving pumpkins we made “Gratitude Pumpkins” this year. It was fun to write on there daily and express what we were thankful for 🙏🏼

Happy 8th Birthday to our sweet and gentle Spirit.

Happy 8th Birthday to our sweet and gentle Spirit. Thank you for your unconditional love, for being such a kind big sister to Koda and for always joining us on our adventures 🙏🏼 We love you girl 💜

Hike up to Bertha Falls (July 2020) in Waterton La

Hike up to Bertha Falls (July 2020) in Waterton Lakes National Park. This area (including Glacier Park on the other side of the border) has always been one of my favourite places. It is a special place with a special energy.
In 2017 about 40% of the park burned due to the Kenow Wildfire. When I first saw the damage in the spring of 2018 I was overwhelmed with sadness. It was so good to see nature bouncing back and starting to heal during our visit this past summer. The views remain stunning 🏔
There is always hope 🙏🏼

As I am going through our photos from this summer

As I am going through our photos from this summer I am really enjoying all the wildflower pictures 🌸
Will be posting a series of these as we were so lucky this summer to see so many of them, it brings a smile to my face to see them again.
I used to have Alberta wildflowers in my garden, sure miss those beauties.

Lundbreck Falls in southwestern Alberta is where the Crowsnest River plunges 12 meters down into the canyon below and is impressive in every season. Every time I visit this place I am just blown away. It is a breathtaking place and is now in danger of being shut down as a provincial park.

Happiest in nature with my camera 📷
This summer was the first time in 5 years that I brought my camera on our outings again. Those 5 years were painful to say the least, and I had lost my connection to myself even before that. The camera was symbolic for finding my way back to myself again. Will be sharing some more pictures of our summer adventures soon.

Now that was such a special visit to the Yamnuska Wolfdog Sanctuary 🐺
So amazing to spend the day with these beautiful creatures! We learned a lot and are so impressed with their rescue efforts. They are going to do an assessment of Spirit as we have always suspected that there is some wolf or coyote mixed in with the Alaskan Malamute, Siberian Husky and German Sheperd mix that she tested as. We are curious to find out what they say.

Have been watching these mega ones develop for most of the afternoon... Hurrying home now before the storms hits Calgary 🌩

The Burmis Tree is a limber pine that marks the ea

The Burmis Tree is a limber pine that marks the eastern edge of the Crowsnest Pass, named after a coal-mining town that thrived here in the early 1900s. Limber trees have one of the longest life spans of any tree in Alberta and are known for their ability to thrive in harsh conditions. As a standing testament to these facts, the Burmis Tree lived for approximately 700 years. It died in the late 1970’s but remained standing until 1998 when high winds toppled it over. The community, which regarded the tree as a significant landmark, refused to simply leave it. Rods and brackets were used to support the tree. To this day it still stands as a landmark, acting as a welcome sign to visitors of the Crowsnest Pass and as a symbol of home for area residents.

Like many others I have driven by this tree so many times in the past 14 years, always on my way to another destination. It always marked the beginning of the journey for me as usually we were on our way to BC or Montana and the Crowsnest Pass felt like a gateway for me. This time I decided to stop and take in the strength and resilience of the Burmis Tree. After all, it is one of the most photographed trees in Canada.

This time of year we usually have some afternoon t

This time of year we usually have some afternoon thunderstorms and possible tornadoes, but it feels like we have more storms than usual this year... at least more than I have seen in the 14+ years since we moved here.
A typical day starts out hot and sunny and then in the afternoon/evening it sort of goes like this.

It looks like this will be the summer to explore more local trails 🏔 so we decided to get into shape and walk around Glenmore Reservoir.
It was a beautiful day ☀️ Other good news: the state of local emergency is being lifted in Calgary, after 3 months... I am curious to see how things will develop from here.
