The Allure of Larches
Many consider fall the most beautiful time to be in the Canadian Rockies, partly because in that season larches turn to gold. The larch is Canada's only deciduous conifer, shedding its soft needles in the fall. The sight of a mountain slope blazing with bright golden larches set against dark green evergreens is truly wondrous.
