On Saturday we hiked to the Plain of the Six Glaciers. The weather was fine and we enjoyed this awesome 7km hike (one way). The hike ends on a viewpoint above Victoria Glacier. From up there you can see six glaciers (hence the name, duh).
On Sunday we did a short hike to see the Silverton Falls (yeah me and waterfalls). After that we hiked to Boom Lake. The weather had turned for the worse. Showers and it was gray and cold. But with our new hiking gear everything was OK! ;)
On Monday (the weather was still not cooperating) we hiked to the Ink Pots at the Johnston Canyon. The Ink Pots are 6 turquoise blue cold spring pools. One pool flows into the other and the water is a constant 4 degrees year round. When you do this hike you pass the popular Lower Falls in Johnston Canyon and the Upper Falls (which we had never seen before). Johnston Canyon HAS TO BE one of the most touristic places in Alberta! The cars are literally lined up to get in. The trick is to come early!
Now on to the photography part of the post!
On our return trip on Monday, we passed by the house. We have a finished ceiling and the walls were prepped for painting! Next step will be the installment of the door and window casings and the installment of the doors. Pretty exciting!

Hey there!
I was just browsing your blog (I lived in BC for a while myself: joharincanada.blogspot.com) and am really impressed with your pictures... Maybe this is a very ignorant question but... how do you give the water this look? Is it photoshopped at all?
Thanks!
Johan
more specifically the silverhorn creek picture really fascinates me...
