Mt.Kidd In Her Glory

Uploaded: September 28, 2008

Description


This is Mt Kidd
In The Canadian Rockies.
She is immense and Majestic
Towering above others and takes a good
while to drive past her in a vehicle.
The Kananaskis River runs past her base.
In Early Spring and June you can hear the
Thundering Of Avalanches. In summer the waterfalls are beautiful.

Another beautiful capture of the Canadian Rockies, Laura! Love the blue sky & the way the trees help round a frame around them! #1006714

Thank you Karen. It was such a GLORIOUS morning when we went walking and I took this shot. Unexpected snow overnight brought thunder all day from the falling snow. It was SUPER EXCITING! #6524667

My first month on BP I got ONE and I didnt even know what it was. I thought I had really won something so I told my whole family. I WON THE BIG EDITORS CHOICE AWARD! Ha!

Of course I had to eat humble pie soon afterwards. Ha!
