Our first animal siting were three young male elk. The gorgeous blue water in the background is the Athabasca River.
They ran into the woods and I walked down river. I ended up on some rocks and all of a sudden the three bucks came running out of the woods. They were probably about 20meters from me while this was going on and I was the only person there, in sight. It was quite neat!
Our only moose of the whole trip was this young fellow in Medicine Lake. Sadly a 200mm could NOT do justice and this itty bitty crop was it.
We decided to hit Pyramid Lake for sunrise...the sun did not behave. It was overcast and stormy so I decided to take a 5 second exposure and get some milky lake water.
Later that afternoon we went for a hike along Maligne Canyon and spent a nice time by this section of the Maligne River.
