Fall in The Foothills of Alberta
Near Tongue Creek Ranch west of Longview Alberta. The famous OH Ranchlands are just behind the hills.
This picture/post was made quickly and easily by using Windows Live Writer – a piece of free desktop software that is far superior to most blog-resident editors. Live Writer is markedly better for positioning inserts like photographs, videos etc. It will generate nice clean XHTML markup. With Live Writer installed on my laptop, creating and publishing posts that include media is a snap.
Fall Colour – Highwood Pass

The ground cover changes colour with the shift in seasons in late September at 2200 meters ASL. This photograph captures a section of the west wall of Highwood Pass, Alberta. |
Young Grizzly Bear Feeds on Dandelions
Spotted this little guy in the Highwood Pass area in Kananaskis Country south of Canmore, Alberta. The grizzly cub was intently chowing down on dandelions and paid no attention to me. Happily, I was some distance away and shot this with a telephoto lens. No sign of the mother but I didn’t hang around to find out if she was in the vicinity!

The Big Skies of Alberta
One of my favourite places to spend time just hanging out and looking at the view. A view that really can’t been done justice in a photograph. Stormy day in the mountains… No problem, head over Highwood Pass out of the mountains toward sunny Longview, Alberta. Turn around and take a look back to the West. This spot is just a few minutes east of Highwood House overlooking the Tongue Creek Ranch.
