Banff National Park is Canada's oldest national park, established in 1885 in the Rocky Mountains. The park, located 110–180 km (68–112 mi) west of Calgary in the province of Alberta, encompasses 6,641 km2 (2,564 sq mi) of mountainous terrain, with numerous glaciers and ice fields, dense coniferous forest, and alpine landscapes. The Icefields Parkway extends from Lake Louise, connecting to Jasper National Park in the north. [Wikipedia]

What is this? I found two of these near the railroad. It looks like a furnace with a manhole cover. It's also locked up tightly with a warning sign. Since the lock is not rusty, I'ld say that it's been replaced recently.

I made an attempt at cropping this, but didn't have the heart to remove all that wonderful scenery.

What other uses could you figure for such a warning sign?

I have never seen such elaborate graphics on a warning sign before.

The warning sign outside the ALTAIR fence, for good reason. The ALTAIR radar is looming behind.

a warning sign that tells you not to cycle on the path because vipers might lie there basking in the sun..

Was the inspiration to the world's best-selling iPhone app garnered here, I wonder?

Remote control locomotives? Yikes!

OK, not a stick figure, but definitely in peril.

Lady's Island, SC- US 21 S Bound comes to an intersection with Coffin Point Road to the left and Seese Road to the right.

I think it's saying to call 110 if you see someone stealing money from the machines.
