b Alberta Trip May 2005 - May 20 May 20 we drove from Cranbrook through Fernie, and through the Crowsnest Pass into Alberta. Once in Alberta, we stopped at the site of the Frank slide, digressed briefly to see the Cowley Ridge windplant, then turned south toward Waterton Lakes National Park. Shortly before we reached the park, Anna spotted a young moose near a pond at the side of the road, and we managed a couple of photos before he trotted off into a thicket. The wind blew relentlessly all day - and didn't stop the entire time we were in Alberta, except once or twice in the very early morning. It was almost impossible to get a decent photograph of anything that wasn't made of stone or bolted to the ground. The park is home to multitudes of beautiful wild flowers, but they were all in constant motion: a photographer's nightmare.
