We went out west… choosing the warmest day of the week (+6C), but … a chinook was coming in and it was WIN-DEEEEE!!!! Gusts up to 100 km/h!! We stayed as sheltered as we could all day!
First stop… Crescent Falls
Here’s Mt. Michener from near the top of Crescent Falls.
Mountains off to the west of the Falls…
Just upstream of the Falls, this little (unnamed) creek flows from the right side of the photo to the left and into the Bighorn River … and floods out to the west …
Crescent Falls …
More mountains to the west …
Zoomed in a little more …
We left Crescent Falls and headed towards Abraham Lake.
Abraham Lake, and Mt. Michener again … this time from the Windy Point pull-off/viewpoint …
It was too windy out at Abraham for our picnic lunch, so headed back towards home. And we found a reasonably sheltered picnic site just west of Nordegg.
And this stinkin’ cute Gray Jay (Whisky Jack, Camp Robber) was hanging out… robbing us of our chips! 😂
