moraine lake

date hiked: august 24, 2006

there are several trailheads surrounding lake moraine, which is minutes from lake louise. we didn’t hike any of the trails fully, and several trails were closed due to berry season (grizzly bears) unless you were in a large group. tyler and i hung around the lake, which is a gorgeous blue. we enjoyed climbing the rockpile, a huge pile of boulders next to the lake, which geologists believe came from landslides of the tower of babel. the lake holds one of the most famous backdrops in canada, the valley of ten peaks.
