A Bridge Too Far: Athabasca Glacier from the Morraines

The Athabasca (Athabaska) Glacier is part of the Columbia Icefield that sits atop the Great Divide and spans Jasper and Banff National Parks.

It's vanishing and shrinking at an ever-increasing rate.

But don't worry, there's no such thing as Global Warming.

Maligne Lake in Jasper National Park,
the Lawren Harris Group of Seven Way?

When Evening Falls
Photo By Stephen A. Nelson

A view of Maligne Lake, in Jasper National Park, at dusk. 

No special effects, FX, PhotoShop or CGI here.

Except for the boathouse, I imagine this is how Lawren Harris might have seen it when he came here.

I took this photo while leading a Japanese television crew on a tour of the Maligne Valley.

We followed up with dinner at the Kimchi House in Jasper - best Korean food this side of Seoul.
