Meems, thanks. You do get a sense of the land when you are hiking through it. Although you do appreciate the beauty when driving through, much of the peacefulness, the sounds and the details are missing.

Absolutely beautiful photos and country. How great you all make the most of the area by camping and hiking. A great way to “feel” the land and water.

Amy, we’re still suspended between late fall and winter. Surprisingly, we haven’t had our permanent snow yet, just a few flurries that have melted within a day.

Hi there – haven’t seen a post from you for awhile, but I imagine your garden is covered in snow by now :)

Just wanted to tell you that I’m having a Christmas giveaway on my blog this week and am accepting entries until Dec. 3. I would love it if you popped over and participated – it should be a lot of fun :)

Wurzerl, Medicine Lake is a very contemplative spot. Surrounded by mountain ranges that reflect in the water, there is beauty around, above and below. There were a few ducks on the water, but otherwise it is very still and quiet.

What a great place – what a great series of photographs!!! I could stay a long time and lose myself in the mirror of the lake!!!
Wish you a good time Wurzerl

Pomona, it is a wonderful place to visit. This trip I didn’t get to the Columbia Glacier. I love the extreme terrain near the glacier, which often feels like another world.

It’s been decades since I’ve been to Jasper National Park–I remember thinking it was one of the most beautiful places on earth I’d ever been, and your photographs are bringing all that back.

Jan, thanks for visiting, and for your kind words. Going up to the mountains is like a fast forward into winter. We’ve had a few snow flakes here, but nothing really accumulating on the ground. In the mountains it looks so pretty when all the peaks get a white frosting.

Hi No. Shade,
WOW. I read the message you left me and decided to stop by…it’s so beautiful! I’ve never scene anything like this. Certainly not here in VA! You are an excellent photographer, as well. Thank you for your visit! Jan
