Waterton
"where the mountains meet the prairies"
on my way back home from the Diltsfarm to Calgary I wanted to spend the day at Waterton Nationalpark. The park sits in the extreme south-western corner of Alberta. It shares boundaries with British Columbia and also with Montana.
The reason why I desperately wanted to visit this nationalpark was a picture of the Prince of Wales hotel in my travelguide which I bought as I started to plan the trip.
It was so worth the trip!
I probably saw a perfect scenery... hot, sunny weather, cristal clear turquoise shining water and a stormy wind!

Right next to Waterton is a Canyon named Red Rock Canyon.
A red coloured mineral gives the Canyon his colour. After hard rainfalls the water is turning red and washes out some of the minerals of the rocks.

and at least some pics from my short walk in Red Rock Canyon and my way back to Calgary on the Cowboytrail (Hwy 22)
