The Snows of August
Around here, I can probably do one of the "Snows of . . ." threads every month.
Walking with Ruby and Pete in Kananaskis Country, Alberta, we find snow out in the open, from last winter . . . Leading to a nice swim in a snow-fed lake on a very hot day . . . Pete enjoys an icy stream . . . A snow patch is nice on the feet for Pete and Ruby. The area on the other mountain in the distance was closed due to a Grizzly feeding on a carcass. Below, Pete on the trail . . . Below, Ruby on the way home . . . . For amusement, the same place in early October last year: continued below . . . .

Beautiful pics, Ric
Those dogs are so lucky to have you as a parent. I've always said that the Alberta Rockies are as close to heaven as you can get.
