Emerald Lake

Emerald Lake                                                            Yoho National Park.  AB. Canada. 2009

Like Peyto Lake, Emerald Lake is a glacier fed lake, the stunning colours in the water are due to glacial sediment which reflects the light.  It's quite amazing how the surface is like a mirror.  The mountains in the background just add to the spectacular scenery.

Peyto Lake

Peyto Lake                                Banff, Alberta, Canada, 2009

Peyto Lake is a glacial fed lake in Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada.  Access to the lake is from the Icefield Parkway which is a nature reserve dotted with glaciers, glacial lakes, massive mountains and wildlife.  One of my favourite places, and I'm glad I got to share this sight with my sister.
