Photographer’s Note
This is a picture from my archives of my vacation to Canada last year. We visited Banff National Park and made a hiking trip from Lake Minnewanka up to Stewart Canyon. Part of this hike we walked trough this forest near Stewart Canyon. In this shot my focus was on the two little green trees in the background. I like the view because the sun was shining on them. It was a very nice and sunny day and also the last day of my vacation, unfortunatly.
But I was lucky enough to bring a lot of nice pictures home with me.
Here's a little background information on Stewart Canyon, wich I found on the internet:
Named for George Stewart, first superintendent of Canada’s first national park, Stewart Canyon was one of Lake Minnewanka’s main attractions in Banff’s early days. Much of Stewart Canyon has lain under water since Lake Minnewanka was dammed, raising the level of the lake by 25 metres. Stewart Canyon is shallow compared to Johnston’s Canyon or even Sundance Canyon. The main attraction today is the Cascade River. The trail is level for 1.6 km to the canyon at the Cascade River bridge. After crossing the bridge, the Stewart Canyon Trail separates from the Lake Minnewanka Trail and continues up the Cascade River to km 2.8.
