Displayed is a picture of the Wind Tower just SE of Canmore. The photo was taken from my pocket size Olympus Stylus 720SW on my way back from Grotto Canyon yesterday afternoon. Winds were relatively calm in the valley but ferrociously licking the flanks of the Wind Tower at the higher elevations. Almost made the Wind Tower look like it was being enlightened and risen into the sky! This mountain, actually a trail on the backside called 'West Wind Pass' was the first hike/date that Karolin and I went on during her trip to Canada. It's always been my favourite mountain in the area so pretty special that we got to know each other hiking beside it.
The sun is actually quite high in the sky but far enough behind the
Wind Tower it was reflecting through the blowing snow
Also got to see the local Bighorn Sheep that were hanging out in their usually spot on the grassy, sun exposed hill on the 1A highway towards Exshaw. Do you think they were there though when Karolin and I tried to say hello when she was on her trip? Ohhhhhhhh noooooooooo!!!!! Well they were hanging out there yesterday :)
