One of the many, many switchbacks on the way to the top of Sulphur Mountain in Banff National Park. The path links the upper hot springs to the top of the gondola — an elevation change of 655 metres. It takes two hours (theoretically) to complete a one-way trip.

The view from my bus window earlier today, just east of the Banff National Park boundary. Smoke from wildfires in British Columbia continues to hang over our region, bathing everything in a warm glow, all day long. The image is slightly cropped but otherwise not retouched.

I hadn’t set foot in Alberta’s badlands for a few years, so it was nice to drop in for a day trip yesterday. This was snapped during a hike in Dinosaur Provincial Park, just north of Bassano, Alberta.

Here’s an office tower with a very funky frontage, just around the corner from St. Paul’s Cathedral in London. Spotted on my visit there a few months ago.
