Night and Day
Exploring the mountains during the day offers breathtaking beauty and awe-inspiring vistas. Witnessing the same landscape at night presents a distinctly unique experience.
As the evening descended and stars began to dot the clear night sky, I anticipated a perfect ending to a beautiful and warm fall day spent in the Canadian Rockies. By the time I was able to get to this location I could see millions of stars but everything else appeared to be engulfed by the darkness.
The familiar landscape now felt very unfamiliar and I jumped at every sound…that our footsteps were creating. I was comforted to have bear spray, a red headlamp and companions at my side. Within minutes I could see the gravel path but stopped just in time before stepping into the lake! At this point the temperature had dropped by 25 degrees from daytime, to below zero. It was cold and dark!
But as our eyes fully adjusted to the darkness, the difference of night and day was so rewarding and I knew that it would forever be a memorable experience!
