Num-Ti-Jah Dreams

The Icefields Parkway in Banff National Park is one of the most beautiful roads in the world. The three hour drive (only if you don’t stop) from the town of Banff to Jasper traverses through the Canadian Rockies. It is famous for it’s scenic mountains and lakes. About an hour and fifteen minutes north of the town of Banff lies Bow Lake. The northern shore of Bow Lake is the location of a great old lodge, the Num-Ti-Jah Lodge. It is a family owned lodge and it’s history can be found here.

When we first pulled into the lodge’s parking lot, we saw the rugged mountains reflected in the water. I immediately got my camera and shot quite a number of images, this being one of them. Every angle produced a beautiful composition. This image is just a very small slice of what you will find along the Icefields Parkway. I haven’t been back there in a number of years but I still dream of my next trip to Num-Ti-Jah Lodge.
