Spring in the Canadian Rockies (Banff National Park) by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: I've been to Petyo Lake many times over the decades, but it had always been over the summer months when glacial flour brings out vibrant turquoise color. Having come from Austin and the Texas area where May weather has more of a warmer temperature with flowers and all in bloom, it was a surprise to see all the snow still on the ground in the Canadian Rockies. Then I saw Peyto Lake with more of a blue color from the still partially melted ice and snow. Beautiful! What a beautiful spring day in the Canadian Rockies!
