It was dark at 5:30am, the path to the top was muddy and slippery due to raining these days. 0C degree, it was freezing cold even with winter jacket on. The sky was full of stars, my hands could almost reach them. When my eyes gradually adapted to the dark, the stars were even brighter. The beautiful Moraine Lake was looming in the mist from the blue hour to red with sunrise light… The most beautiful 2~3 hours. 😉
There were not so many parking spots left at 5:15am. But luckily got in. Went here again one week later at 4:50am, planned to take sunrise photo at Moraine Lake, then hike to the Larch Valley. But parking lot was full. If the lots were full, you would not be allowed in… But the staff started to work at 5am, so many cars parked the 13 km road to Moraine Lake (roadside)… It was the peak time for Larch Valley, which is located up above Moraine Lake in the hamlet of Lake Louise, the trailhead of this hike begins at this very busy, very popular Moraine Lake parking lot… If you want to capture sunrise in the early morning, better arriving before 5am to guarantee a parking spot. Otherwise, you may have to go somewhere else…😊
