Explore Alberta #1 - Bragg Creek
Just west of Calgary is one of Alberta' gems - Bragg Creek. A family friendly national park with crystal clear water, stunning views of the Rocky mountains and wildlife in every direction.
This is a great place to go for the day, have a little picnic and enjoy the company of your loved ones.
There are some nice trails for hikes -

Beautiful, clean waters to take a dip - if you're brave enough for some icy mountain water.
Just beautiful scenery in every direction. There are some beautiful destinations that everyone will enjoy that can't be covered in a single post!
More to come!
All in all, a perfect place to take the pup and do some backyard exploring. There's something for everyone. The quaint little town nearby with some Western style shops in it's strip mall is a perfect place to stop on the way back and grab some ice cream or snacks.
(Forgot to snap some shots of them sorry!)
You and your friends/family won't regret the trip out. Alberta has so much to see! This is just a drop in the pond.
Until next time;
;)

Have you been?
no, I'm informed from my friend.
Nice park. Canada has the most amazing places to visit. Icey cold mountain streams are perfect for catching rainbow trout. In the first photo, there are a couple of rock piles. Do you know the significance of these piles? I have seen them in various locations across the globe but have not found one good explanation...
They are called "inukshuk" and are monuments made of unworked stones that are used by the Inuit for communication and survival. The traditional meaning of the inukshuk is "Someone was here" or "You are on the right path."
These in particular are probably meaningless, just build by families visiting the area.
Thank you for the explanation. That makes sense.
