... but yesterday we went up the Icefields Parkway from Lake Louise almost to Jasper to the Icefields center. These next two pictures are of the Athabasca Glacier as viewed from the information center. The center is very comprehensive and has many displays concerning glacier formation and info about this one in particular. Actually all you can see here is a tiny portion of the ice field which starts at the top center of this photo. The glacier behind these mountains is about 325 square miles in area. This glacier in 1844 came up across the road you see here and was almost to where I took this shot.
More of the same glacier from the information center.
This is Moraine Lake about 20 miles north of Lake Louise on the Icefield Parkway.
