It was another warm and sunny day with temperatures hitting 70 degrees. We had a leisurely morning just enjoying the campsite before heading over to the first lake of the day. It was extremely busy so we took a couple of pictures and then decided to hike to the end of the lake towards the three glaciers that feed Lake Louise.
Even though we had both been here before it was the first time we had hiked any of the trails. The one that lead around the lake was 2 kilometers but we went another kilometer on the continuation trail. The view from this end was quite nice and you could get a nice view of the chateau.
The other lake was calling us so we turned around and hiked back to the camper which was 3 kilometers and headed for Moraine Lake. This is another glacier feed lake that has that emerald or turquoise look to it. Moraine Lake is in a valley called “The Valley of the Ten Peaks” and was very stunning. We hiked part way around this lake but only went a kilometer before turning back.

We also came across a bunch of rock climbers during our hike. It seems that this is a very popular place for amateur climbers.

On the way back Kathy had to try playing with the wildlife again. Fortunately this creature was slow moving and she was able to get away.
Once we had escaped the bear we headed back to the campsite to relax for awhile before supper. So I lit a fire and we enjoyed a cup of tea.
Brian B, you will notice that those are ribs that I am cooking on the fire. YUMMMMMM.
It was a good day.
