A few shots of my surroundings, as I made my way back to the Bertha Lake perimetre trailhead. The snow stays suspended in the mountains here well into Summer, only for 1-2 months the mountains are free

Well retracing my steps now, back to the east end of the lake where I started! The shoreline here had a distinct redness to it, even the sand was somewhat red in colour. It was incredibly beautiful! It

A few more clicks as I made my way around (at least part way) Bertha Lake. At this point I was thinking to myself that I was stretching out this hike further than planned, was like should I or shouldn’t

Ok, so I decided to set out on the 4 kilometre loop trail circling the lake. (Spoiler alert: I didn’t make it all the way around) A perimetre lake trail implies no elevation gain right? Must be at least

After about 2.5 hours and 500 metres of elevation gain, I finally arrived at Bertha Lake! Located inside Waterton Lakes national park, this hike is one of the premier must do hikes in the park. That being

Here we are on the last Friday of October! How has your week been, anything exciting happen? What are your thoughts on the bitcoin binance hack situation? Serious, but if it were really dire I believe

After tackling several switchbacks, I was making good progress on my way to Bertha Lake. By this time the afternoon temperature was hitting its peak, and the heat was making things somewhat tougher, but

The first major attraction on the way to Bertha Lake was the lower falls. Not nearly as tall as the upper falls, but definitely more visible to see and photograph. I stayed there awhile to soak in the

Journeying onward and upward toward Bertha Lake, located inside Waterton Lakes national park, Alberta. Over yonder is Waterton lake itself, showing us its beautiful turquoise colour (a common occurrence

I had been planning on doing this hike to Bertha Lake for about a year now. The first time around we only went about a third of the way, this time is was gonna be all the way to the Lake. I was prepared

You know that saying: “it’s not about the destination, it’s about the journey”. Well this hike to Bertha Lake reminds me of this saying; and with views like this, who even needs to go to Bertha lake?!

Last year we hiked to Lower Bertha Falls, or about a third of the way to Bertha lake. This year the plan was to hike all the way to the lake, so I did. Located inside Waterton Lakes Park, Alberta, the

Welcome to another “Random Friday” where I display random photos captured over the last year or so. We are now officially in the weekend! Any Big plans? How was the week that was? Did you get up to anything

Lower Lineham Falls? Well about a kilometre or so from the major Lineham Falls there is a much smaller fall located just off the trailhead, along Lineham Creek. Obviously at much smaller scale than big

After spending some time at Lineham Falls, it was time to return back to trailhead. All great hikes must come to an end right? (unfortunately). As I made my way back down, I slipped on some loose rocks,

Thought I’d play around with the shutter speed here at Lineham Falls. The first two photos were taken at a speed of 1/2500th of a second (2500 ISO), and the third was taken with a shutter speed of 1/250th

Here I am, at the base of this great water fall! The roar of the fall was loud, but not deafening. It was a surreal experience being so close — it was fantastic! After snapping a few photos and taking

As I approached Lineham Falls, we get a better look, up close — the reward for my effort. Hiking to a fall is certainly one of my favourite type of hikes to do. You always know there is a guaranteed reward

Here we are getting a little closer to the magnificent Lineham Falls, located inside Waterton Lakes Park, Alberta. Along the way, there was also a miniature falls to check out. Notice the red tint in the

It’s Friday October 16th, another Random Friday, another Fall season in full force! Leaves turning such pretty colours, cooler breezes in the air. Next the snow will fly, but hopefully not until well into
