Hi Mum,

Today we asked smaug if we were going to hit the slopes again, but he said that his toes where still a bit too frostbitten and insensitive from skiing last week and he didn’t want to lock them in the ski boots yet...so we went for a hike around Banff instead . At the beginning of the trail we crossed this nice little canyon.



In the distance you can see Lake Minnewanka...completely frozen.



When the trees opened up a bit we could see more of the lake .




It seems that no one has been on this trail for some time....we actually started wondering if it was a trail at all .



Eventually we reached our destination, the shore of the lake a few km away from the parking lot. Here the landscape was very...white .





We walked to the middle of the lake to take some photos from there .




Eventually the wind started picking up and quickly the temperature fell down, so we decided to hide in the backpack for the rest of the day .
