Elbow Falls, over a thick bed of Carbonate Limestone

Middle of January and it doesn’t feel like winter

Late autumn photo of Elbow Lake in Kananaskis Alberta with a few tell tale signs winter is setting in.

Elbow Falls, Kananaskis

Always a wonderful attraction to visit but the falls are not as large as they were several years ago before the adverse weather conditions and landslides.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR VISITS, COMMENTS, AWARDS AND FOR ANY INVITES.

The second cup of coffee from the Crossroads corner store at Iron Junction, MN cooled off quickly as we stood on the Rte. 37 overhead bridge waiting for the northbound CNR MRF local freight on the former Missabe. We knew we had 3 south bounds on the "Peg", but that wasn't the reason we came to the range. Just minutes after sunrise, the MRF with CN SD60 5416 raced north past us headed back to Virginia with a good-sized freight. This was a nice start to our day, only to get better with more EMD's and steaming pellets until sunset. CN MRF 5416 Irn Junction, MN September 15, 2021.

My first visit to Elbow Falls on my birthday 5 years ago! Wow - time flies.

The hike to Elbow Lake, one view from which is pictured here, is one of the most popular for visitors to Alberta's Kananaskis Country.

We pass this tree often on our walks, and it always makes me stop. I don't think I've finished with it yet.

After a very yummy lunch with a friend, the road took me down to Elbow Falls. Such a wonderfaul day!!

Getting to the falls early enough in the morning meant we got to enjoy it alone. But that didn't last long, and we had to share the beauty with lots of folks eventually.

A lovely January afternoon

Nothing better than the sound of water and wind. A very calming force in a rather crazy world.

A nice place to escape from reality for a wee while. The sounds of the water and wind is welcoming when life gets crazy.
