Jasper

Looking NE as the Yellowhead Highway leads to Jasper Alberta.

 

I'm heartbroken about the devastation that has hit this favorite destination. Reports that 1/3 of the town on mostly this near end are gone. Everyone had to evacuate. Fortunately they all got out safely.

 

The fire still lingers, with more damage in the park lands nearby.

May they get it under control soon.

 

I honeymooned here plus had many other great stays and photo hunts here over many years. Can't comprehend that much of it is gone. A generational loss.

 

Hope the wildlife moved away safely as well. Lots of game here.

I will share more shots of this special park, one of the very finest on the continent during the next couple days.

 

Thoughts, prayers and best wishes for Jasper and it's citizens.
