| Superlatives fail to do justice to the grandeur of this part of the world. The Icefields Parkway is a breathtaking drive through the glacial valleys of the Canadian Rockies. I stand here alone at twilight overlooking Peyto Lake, well after the crowds have retreated to the warmth of their hotels. I endure sub-zero temperatures and bitterly cold winds in eager anticipation of something special. As ribbons of high cloud capture the last rays of the setting sun, rare light paints a stunning mountain vista. I stand solitary witness to this moment of magic. |
