    Default Lake Louise - Part IV

    As I started on the trail down, there was a loud boom, which at first I thought was thunder, but realized was an avalanche, as snow pack breaks off the cliff sides and falls down the mountain. I turned and saw it in the distance, well away from where I had been in any case.

    Marko: Thanks for the comments. But if you make living the phrase "more fully" your goal, haven't you missed the point? LOL
    MA, JAS, Ig and Lisa: Thanks too for your comments. it was indeed exciting. Mike

    That's a rare catch I guess. Really lucky and wonderful shots - especially the second one.
