Frozen along the Kananaskis River

I spent the day skiing at Nakiska yesterday.  On the way home I stopped at Canoe Meadows and walked down to the edge of the Kananaskis River.  The failing light of early evening created deep shadows and cast deepening blue tones across the scene.  Chunks of ice floated downstream while the snow fell lightly.  There was a line of ice marking a recent water level, higher than it is now.  It had been a few years since I wandered along this part of the river.  It was not a disappointing end to a great day.

    Years ago, maybe more years than you’ve been alive, I spent a summer in Kananaskis Country as a Junior Forest ranger. I met some of the best friends I’ve ever had and we’re still friends. And your photos brought all that back. You’re very talented.
