Footprints on the Boardwalk

Tourists’ footprints show up in the snow on the boardwalk along the north-east end of Lake Louise, Alberta, Canada.

The lake was still iced over when I was there last month, with approximately a metre or two of clear water around the lake edge.

Apparently July is the best time of the year to visit the Rockies, as it’s the middle of summer, the weather has warmed up, and the wonderful turquoise blue water of the lakes can be enjoyed.
I recently visited Alberta in May – I didn’t choose the timing, but it was a work-related visit, and I took a few days off after I had completed my work committments, and drove through the Banff National Park.

Lake Louise is well-known for its turquoise water. The colour is caused by rock flour in the glacial waters flowing into the lake. However, when I was there, the lake was hiding its turquoise waters under a coating of ice and snow.
