The story behind the image

We approached the Canadian Rocky Mountains from the west, coming from Clearwater which was our last stopover prior to Jasper. Clearwater is a busy community just south of the Wells Gray Provincial Park with several stunning hikes and viewpoints. It is less busy compared to the Jasper National Park, though, which makes it very attractive for those looking for a peaceful time out in the woods.

We stayed for two nights in Clearwater, which gave us the opportunity to visit Wells Gray Provincial Park for a full day.

This image shows the magnificient view from the Green Mountain Viewing Tower in the afternoon. Pyramid Mountain sticks prominently out from the seemingly endless woods. A bit of mist can be seen in the distance caused by heavy rain that came down earlier that day.
