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.

Visitors who hike Sulphur Mountain in Banff National Park are warned to stay on the designated pathway to protect plants and wildlife in the area. Clearly, over the years, some people have not heeded the directive.

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.
