After taking the sunrise photo on top of the mountains, hiked down the mountain along the trail, the snow on the mountains and trees were melting with the sun rising. While approaching to the bottom of Mount Assiniboine, the sun scattering on top of the mountain, made me feel the heaven descending on earth! 😊

Postcard perfect of Peyto Lake, Banff National Park :) Kinda liked the patchy sunlight on the turquoise lake.

Mount Assiniboine at 11,870 ft ( or 3620m ) above sea level.

This mountain peak is in the province of British Columbia, but seen from Standish Mountain in Alberta.

Mount Assiniboine as seen from the sky with Marvel Lake up front and Lake Gloria in the background. This is in British Columbia near the Alberta border in the Canadian Rockies. Photo is taken from a helicopter.

An aerial view heading west into Banff National Park headed for Mount Assiniboine. We had just passed by Galatea Mountain when I took this shot.

This pano was a bit difficult to shoot and stitch together - edited using Lightroom and Photoshop. It's eight images panned from N to SW. I might revisit this photo a bit more at a later time but so far I'm pleased with the results (I may have resorted to witchcraft). The aurora lights up the mountain range, the Milky Way is moving westward away from Mount Assiniboine and a green arc crossed the sky roughly from NE to SW.

Mount Assiniboine is the most beautiful place on the planet I have been to so far. The Mount Assiniboine Lodge is located in the Canadian Rockies, seventeen miles from any road. You get there by hiking or helicopter. We chose the later for our trip back in 2007. Can't wait to go back again some day.

 

This image was taken with my first DSLR, a Konica-Minolta Maxxum 7D with 6MP. I shot in JPEG back then and I didn't have a tripod. Even still, this image came out pretty nicely. A nice find from the archives.

Mount Assiniboine is a pyramidal peak mountain located on the Great Divide, on the British Columbia/Alberta border in Canada. It is the highest peak (3,618 m) in the Southern Continental Ranges of the Canadian Rockies. Once lifted/hiked to the huts/campground, the climbing to the top of the mountains was not so difficult, 5.7km from the huts to the peak. This loop generally follows the trail from Magog campground to Sunburst Lake and passes Cerulean Lake, before climbing up to Nub Peak from Elizabeth Lake. After taking the sunrise photo on top of the mountains, hiked down the mountain along the trail. While approaching the bottom of Mount Assiniboine, the scenery was so different compared to the top. Here was the “A” mountain seen from the bottom! 😊

Early morning at Mount Assiniboine, dark blue hour...

 

Spent three days in huts by taking helicopter in Mt. Assiniboine Provincial Park. After the snow in the dark early morning of the second day, afraid that the mountain climb would be slippery, so took crampons and climbed to the top of the mountain in the light of the headlamp.... This was the phenomenal panoramic views of Sunburst Peaks and Mt. Assiniboine with Lake Magog and Lake Sunburst.

Blazing a trail to the Niblet was quite challenging in fresh deep powdery snow. The pristine view along the journey and at the destination was unforgettable.

We just got back from a fabulous trip to the Canadian Rockies to see the fall colors. With the early snows, we were concerned that the larch needles might fall off prematurely. But it turns out the color was actually a bit late this year, so we were right on time being there the first part of Oct. Here's a shot of some soft evening light at Cerulean Lake. It's a long way to backpack into here, but it's so worth it for scenes like this!

Happy November! It's easy to fall in love with the views of Mt Assiniboine in the fall. This peak is often called the Matterhorn of the Rockies. This shot was taken at sunrise and I liked this spot since I caught the tip of the peak reflecting in the lake below.

A clear and calm morning from a backpacking trip in the Canadian Rockies. Mt Assiniboine, because of its pyramidal shape, is often known as the “Matterhorn” of North America. I have yet to see the real Matterhorn, but after seeing Mt Assiniboine, I am itching to see the real deal.

Climbing all the way to nublet in Mount Assiniboine provincial park before sunrise is very much fun, especially hiking in the dark, with a headlamp, worrying about bears or cougars, quite an advanture. When you actually reach there, and enjoy sunrise, oh, man, all the efforts are worthwhile, just so many mosquitoes in the summer, even on the peak, I probably got more than a dozen bites while shooting sunrise.

I spent the final days of 2014 and the first part of 2015 exploring the Canadian Rockies.

 

On this particular day, the temperature dropped to -32 degrees Celsius. Waking up in a mountain hut with no heat in this temperature is an experience I'll never forget. A "warm" front that swept in near sunset time brought in the tropical-looking clouds you see in this shot.

Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada

For the third year in a row, we spent the Christmas holidays in Assiniboine.

 

This pano consists of 4 vertical frames.

After seeing shots from this spot taken in three seasons, I've dreamed about photographing this spot in the winter.

 

Blazing a trail to the Niblet was a challenge in fresh deep powdery snow. Although the conditions weren't that great for photography with bald skies and all, the pristine view along the journey and at the destination was unforgettable.

 

There are three frozen lakes in this shot -- from left to right, Lake Magog, Sunburst Lake, Cerulean Lake.

 

This is a 2-row pano, consisting of 26 individual vertical shots.

When I visited Mount Assiniboine provincial park last summer, there was an evening that I observed a true wonderful scene. Standing in front of the river, I took a deep breath, let my time pass by.

This photograph was made on a 7 day backpacking trip in Mount Assiniboine Provincial Park, Canada. (September 2006) We were camped at Lake Magog (far left) and day hiked up to "The Nub" for the views. Mount Assiniboine is called the "Matterhorn of the Rockies" It is in the background, Sunburst Peak is in the middle. The lakes from L to R are Magog, Sunburst and Cerulean.

 

Winter in the Canadian Rockies is full of surprises.

May all your clouds add color to your sunset skies.

 

This was a 2-row pano. Breaking trail to this spot was not easy with fresh snow.

The Canadian Rockies ranks among the most beautiful places I've been. It is extremely difficult to capture and present an image of how one perceives the world, of how one recalls a memory; this shot doesn't even come close to doing this place justice, but hope you enjoy it nonetheless.

 

As the sun went down, the clouds engulfed Mt. Assiniboine. What a magical place this is.

 

This pano consists of 9 vertical frames.

Taken from a helicopter as we approached our destination. If you look closely, you can see specks of snow that the helicopter blades were starting to pick up from the fresh powder on the ground.

It felt like walking inside a Christmas card.

Sometimes I look at a scene and imagine the variety of weather conditions that took place in this very spot. From howling storms to blinding white on a sunny winter day, gray drizzle that smells divine, low clouds hiding the peaks, blazing skies at sunrise, or just a whiff of color at sunset. This is what was there on September 13th at 7:52:19 PM.

 

Here's what this view looks like in Google Earth

My favorite view in the Canadian Rockies, maybe because of the effort it takes to get here. It's not a roadside pull-off packed with tourists. It's a magical spot that can only be reached by a helicopter and lots of hiking. But if you're up for the task, there is no better view on earth. We left our tent at Lake Magog at 3:30am in the rain to reach the peak atop the "Nibblet" to photograph (a hidden) Mt Assiniboine. This is a 4 shot pano stitched with PTGui.

 

This was my last day in Mount Assiniboine park, and I decided to capture this "green" sunrise. The only disappointment was not many clouds to bring dramas, but on the other hand, not a single breeze ruined the reflection, I know I shouldn't expect too much. Actually the plants, the red peak, and the fog are the key factors in this image. Good morning, Mount Assiniboine.

Mt Assiniboine rises above Lake Magog and because of its pyramidal shape, Mt Assiniboine is often known as the “Matterhorn” of North America. I have yet to see the real Matterhorn, but after seeing Mt Assiniboine, I am itching to see the real deal.

Few things make the mighty Mount Assiniboine (3,618 m or 11,870 ft) seem small; but the milky way has to be one of them. This is a ten shot stack with all shots taken using a 50mm f1.8 prime at ISO 6400 and a 10 second exposure time. Mount Assiniboine Provincial Park, British Columbia, Canada.

This was my second time up to the Nub at Mount Assiniboine. We left camp at about 4:30am to make it up here in time for the rising sun. It’s always a little intimidating to charge through the woods in grizzly territory in the dark, but we made lots of noise and were as prepared as we could be for any wildlife encounters. The closest we came was a bear track in the mud the day before :-).

 

It was cold and windy up here but spectacular to watch the day begin from this vantage point. Very humbling and thrilling at the same time.

 

The view is a no brainer - You can point your camera in any direction and see something awesome… What was extremely challenging was the foreground. Trying to find something to lead the eye, without being distracting was tough… especially when you are so overwhelmed by the beauty of this place. I think this spot was pretty cool though and decided to return to it from the previous shoot a couple nights earlier.

About the half way point on Mount Standish.This group of skiers were getting excited about going down the mountain together.

In the background you can see Mount Assiniboine in British Columbia.

After a re-energizing lunch, we started our hike up to Nub Peak. The trail is segmented into various levels of elevation that have rather endearing names: Nub, Niblet, Nublet and Nub Peak (in ascending order). The hike was relatively easy with moderate elevation gain all the way to Nublet, but things got choppy thereafter. From Nublet to Nub Peak, it gets pretty sketchy when you hike past a ridge and start hugging the Nub from the left. Some parts of the trail are basically narrow paths that drop vertically on the left – lose your footing and that’s it. Though Nub Peak is the highest point on the trail, most people get their sunset shots from either Niblet or Nublet. I have seen a shot by Kevin McNeal taken from Nub Peak and decided to check it out myself. After ruffling my nerves quite a bit, I made it up to Nub Peak unscathed. I only took a couple of shots before sunset and rushed back to Nublet for sunset. I made it just in time for sunset and met everyone else at Nublet. It was a clear, cloudless sunset at Nublet, but in my opinion, Nublet offers the best views of the 4 lakes (Lake Magog, Sunburst Lake, Cerulean Lake, and Elizabeth Lake) and Mt Assiniboine, so I enjoyed shooting there.
