Morning Magic

A tighter crop on a beautiful sunrise in Canmore AB. Mt. Lawrence Grassi, Ha Ling Peak and Ship's Prow reflected in Policeman's Creek.

 

Mount Lawrence Grassi is named for an Italian miner, who emigrated to the country in 1912. In addition to his career as a miner, he was an avid climber and became well-known and well-respected as a climbing guide at the time.

 

Mt. Ha Ling is named for the intrepid Chinese cook that first scaled its intimidating summit in 1896, who climbed it on a bet. This prominent peak is situated between Mt. Rundle and the Three Sisters and is over 2408 meters.

 

So much beauty in the Canadian Rockies.

 

I'm off to visit my 93 year-old father and other family members I've not seen for over a year. Many hugs ahead!

 

Thanks for taking a look. Always appreciated!
