The third day of our vacation started out cool, overcast and drizzling and progressed to rainy and cold. Despite the weather we headed north on the Bow Valley Parkway to Lake Louise. Along the way we scouted a location for tomorrow's hike as well as all of the ski areas (Norquay, Lake Louise and Sunshine Valley) in the vicinity. Lake Louise is that amazing turquoise color because it is fed by glacial waters. The movement of the glaciers grinds rocks into‘flour’ that is suspended in the water. The minerals in the flour give the water that amazing color.
