	Moraine Lake Reflection, Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada

		While I was shooting this photo, I noticed a small whirlpool exactly where the sun is reflecting off the water in the lower right corner of this picture, suggesting to me that I had accidentally spotted the area of the underwater outlet.
		The peaks in the reflection are popularly known as "The Ten Peaks," but the official name, "Wenkchemna Peaks," was given to the range by Samuel Allen who, along with Walter Wilcox, were the first Europeans to see the valley in 1893.

	Larch Valley, The Canadian Rockies
		In fall, when the larch trees have turned a magnificent gold and the sun is shining, few spots in the Canadian Rockies can match the beauty of this valley, but don’t expect to find much solitude (and don’t be too disappointed if the trail is closed in fall—it often is because of wildlife).
		Although the most popular time for visiting the valley is fall, it is a worthy destination all summer, when the open meadows are filled with colorful wildflowers.
		Mount Fay (3,235 meters/10,615 feet) is the dominant peak on the skyline, rising above the other mountains that make up the Valley of the Ten Peaks.
