Tea at Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise

As you may have gathered from my recent posts, I finally completed university! For my 'celebration' I chose to go for high tea at Lake Louise. I had been for tea at the Empress Hotel in Victoria, British Columbia so I knew I would enjoy it (see my post about Victoria here). The reason I …

Karst Springs

Someone made a request that I post about Karst Springs, so I am now fulfilling that request. I went here for the first time last summer. To be honest, the first part of the hike is slightly boring as it is on an old road, but once you reach the lake and the springs it is …

Forgetmenot Pond, Alberta

Today when I opened my Twitter I was excited to see that the barricade on Highway 66 was opened!  Last year my mom and I discovered this gem that we had heard of, but had never been to! I thought since the road to Forgetmenot Pond is now open, for the season, it would be a …

Grassi Lakes, Canmore, Alberta

As with my last post, about Grotto Canyon, Grassi Lakes is a hike that I love to do at least once per summer. As I mentioned in a lot of my posts I love waterfalls and Grassi lakes has a wonderful waterfall and other bodies of water to photograph. Grassi Lakes is a hike I love because …

The Colonel’s Cabin (WWII Internment Camp) & Johnson’s Lake

One of my first adventures, since finishing school, was on Saturday, April 22, 2017. My mom and I went to The Colonel's Cabin in Kananaskis and then out to Johnson Lake for a small hike. Colonel's Cabin ("History Loop"): Our first part was a quick little walk through the 'History Loop'. It is very short, but fascinating. …

Jasper in a Day! {July 26, 2016}

(For more Jasper pictures click here) Last summer we did not go on a long holiday, as we normally due, to prior obligations. Instead we had more of a 'stay-cation' and went on different day trips throughout the week. One of our day trips was to go out to Jasper as I had not been …

Ram Falls — My Saturday Adventure

Now that school is coming to a close and I was able to get most of my homework done last week, so I was able to take a break this Saturday. My mom and I went for a drive out in the country and visited Ram Falls. It was nice just to get out. I …

Bankhead, Alberta — Banff National Park

Since I am still not quite done school for the semester I have yet to go on any recent adventures. Therefore, I thought I would write about another hike from last summer. A bit of history... Bankhead, Alberta is now an old abandoned coal mining town. According to some of my research the town was …

My Love of Waterfalls…

Just thought I'd do a quick post for those of you 'following' my blog. First of all, thanks for following my blog! Once school is out for the semester (April 21st is my last exam....hooray!) I will try to post more about past adventures and new ones I hope to take this summer! I am …

Yamnuska Wolfdog Sanctuary

This past summer my family and I went out near Cochrane, Alberta to visit the Yamnuska Wolfdog Sanctuary. It was such an interesting and unique experience, so I thought I would share it with everyone! We went on July 25, 2016. We paid to have the "Interactive Tour". This tour allowed us to get up …
