Crowfoot
Pass - Inge &
Henry Stolz and Carol spent the day skiing a counter clockwise loop up to
Crowfoot Pass and then down a creek drainage. |
|
|
|
|
 |
|
Skiing across the meadows from the Icefields Parkway. We headed into the
trees and then turned left under the cliff bands. The Crowfoot Glacier is on
the right side of the picture. |

I couldn't resist skiing
down this slope before
heading on towards the
pass. It was probably
the best skiing of the
day. |

I guess I forgot to take pictures from the pass and then the skiing was so
much fun coming down the creek drainage there just wasn't time to stop for
pictures. Here we've reached the bottom and now must cross the creek and
make our way through the trees and back to the car. The smiles say it all. |

Dolomite
Pass - Sheila & Sebastian Powell
and Carol did a trip up to Dolomite Pass the next day. Skiing was
reasonable, but there was certainly some sun crust to deal with.
Everyday is a good day. |
