Thing 4

Waterton

My vacation time was spent in Canada with my family this summer. While I was there, my sister and I went to Waterton National Park. It is becoming one of my favorite mountain hiking treks.  Since my parents live in Lethbridge, Alberta, it is a nice little day trip.

Cross the Stream

It was a rainy year (in fact, my sister said it was the nicest day of the year) and the streams were flooded. We took off our shoes and forded the cold mountain water.

It was a big time sway-back trail all the way up. Back and forth, back and forth.

There was a nice view though of course.

  1. That looks like an awesome vacation. My wife and I love the mountains--especially hiking and white water rafting. We really want to get up to Canada some time.

  2. Personally, if I go for vacation with my wife, I will like to find out beautiful scenery. And your pictures are terrific! I wish I can go there sometime in the future, but not pretty sure if I'm able to do the hiking part.
