While not a long walk, it's a steep one. I constantly asked myself why I was doing this. I was on vacation, for god's sake!

Happy Easter everyone!
The light and shadows create a mountain within a mountain, capturing a spring avalanche near Crowfoot Glacier and Bow Lake in Jasper National Park.
It was already late in the afternoon when I decided to hike up to Avalanche Lake, and my first time at this location.
I questioned myself whether I had made the right decision when it started to rain and thunder came rolling in, nor did it help seeing everyone else heading the opposite direction.
Yet, I could not and did not want to turn around.
A magnet was pulling me to keep walking, surrounded by ancient western hemlocks and red cedars as tall as 100 feet,
until I reached my destination.
No one was in sight. The whole lake so still, so beautiful, already expecting me, hugged by Bearhat and Little Matterhorn Mountain. Even the setting sun appeared from behind the clouds.
In this moment, at this location, I felt that love can be a sudden arrival in overwhelming quantities, just like an avalanche.

Have a great Monday!

Happy Waterfall Wednesday!
There is a considerable avalanche risk on Mt Taranaki following heavy snowfalls there.

The storm had passed. When we came up over the next ridge, we saw the most amazing sight we’re ever seen. A thousand feet below us, there it was: a rainbow avalanche, an avalanche rainbow. Call it what you will - it was like dying and being born again.
Tune: Leonard Cohen - Avalanche
Well I stepped into an avalanche
It covered up my soul
When I am not this hunchback that you see
I sleep beneath the golden hills
You who wish to conquer pain
You must learn, learn to serve me well
You strike my side by accident
As you go down for your gold
The crippled h i that you clothe and feed
Is neither starved nor cold
He does not ask for your company
Not at the centre, the centre of the world
When I am on a pedestal
You did not raise me there
Your laws do not compel me
To kneel grotesque and bare
I myself am the piedestal
For this ugly hump at which you stare
You who wish to conquer pain
You must learn what makes me kind
The crumbs of love that you offer me
They're the crumbs I've left behind
Your pain is no credential here
It's just the shadow, shadow of my wound
I have begun to long for you
I who have no greed
I have begun to ask for you
I who have no need
You say you've gone away from me
But I can feel you when you breathe
Do not dress in those rags for me
I know you are not poor
You don't love me quite so fiercely now
When you know that you are not sure
It is your turn, beloved
It is your flesh that I wear
