Waterton Lakes National Park, Alberta, CANADA

After stopping in a field for some great cloud shots, we headed north for Waterton Lakes National Park. This is the Canadian portion of Glacier.  We often tend to be in the right place at the right time.  In this case we arrived at the Prince of Whales historic hotel in Waterton on the last day it was open for the year.  The stunning Swiss chalet style building was completed in 1927 and maintains the feel of the era today.  Unfortunately, one of the two roads through the park was closed.  We spent a full day driving that road, hiking and photographing the plethora of bears before heading back to the Glacier side of the park.  It was in Waterton that we saw our first grizzly.  Thankfully, it wasn't close! 
I swear she's nice!

Ok, ok I get it already!

  1. Dear Gypsies........I just sent you a message and clicked Preview to " preview" and lost the text. Gosh, what's that about. So I'm sending my message again. I love the pictures of Waterton Lakes, Canada and especially the photos of the cloud formations. Don't they just connect you with your spirit?
    Also, love the pictures of Ms. Clovey being so cute.
    I miss you gypsies and hold the white light upon you throughout your great adventure.
