Sunshine Meadows - Rock Isle Lake

IMG_20240918_141105_Original.jpeg

Here we are at the top of Sunshine, Banff, a place called Sunshine Meadows. The basic hike up here is actually not very long, and it covers three relatively small lakes. The first stop along the circuit is Rock Isle Lake, the second biggest of the three. It took approximately 30 minutes or so to reach the lake, and the weather was being very cooperative, with some decent rays for a Fall day. Virtually a perfect Fall day for hiking. Couldn’t have asked for better weather. We lucked out!

The first, second and third picture looks unreal from the angle you've taken them. Did you have to take many to get this much of a consistent shot?

For this round of photos, most of them turned out well actually. But often times it is about 1:3, for every 3 photos, only 1 is a keeper. Have a good weekend!

Indeed, have a good weekend too.

Thanks.

What beautiful terrain for a nice little hike! Nicely kept trails and gorgeous pine trees. It must have smelled great along the way and the sound of the wind through the pines. I can almost imagine being there. That last picture looking down is great, I love it along with the path through the pines. Today I like the colors more, probably just my mood though. Great job!

One of my all-time favourite areas to hike! The trails are maintained well too. Looking forward to the next outing, probably be a winter easy hike of some kind. Thanks as always for stopping by.

The 5th picture just screams BEAUTY! My the breath taking view is so mesmerizing. I don't know which superseded you photo taking skills or the Lightroom edit. But it's just brilliant. 🏔

Probably the lightroom edit..thanks for stopping by!

breathtaking views of sunshine meadows that's a view I wouldn't get tired of.

One of my favourite spots for sure. This was our third time here, looking forward to the fourth.

Those trails look well maintained. Must have made for a better hiking experience.

Yes, it is inside a national park, which usually means well groomed trails (but not always). Thanks for stopping by.

Very beautiful view, is the water in the lake flowing?

The lake water would be run off from the nearby mountains. As far as I know they are suspended up here.

Another wonderful display of talent for landscape photography!!!...

Thank you sir!

Wow, it looks so beautiful it's even hard to believe it's real.... I would like to visit it someday, but no idea how to get there....

This place is accessible via first coming to Calgary, Alberta. Then the rest is easy. Thanks.

Beautiful pictures 😍

Thanks.
