Let’s get back to Kananaskis country, and resume our hike. This hike is called Prairie view trail, and this is the view from the highest point. Funny thing is, this prairie view is very mountainous. I suppose the reason this hike is called prairie view, is because we are inside Alberta, which is know as a “prairie province”. Typically Canada is known to have three prairie provinces: Manitoba, Alberta, and Saskatchewan. This part of Alberta is actually fairly close to the British Columbia border, which is just to the west. Anyways, back to the hike. Once at the summit area, it generally is fitting to grab a quick snack and refresh oneself, kick back a bit, soak up some rays and contemplate the return portion of the hike. Did you get a chance to do any good hiking last summer?

Taking a moment at the summit to just relax and enjoy nature sounds like the perfect recharge.
Indeed, it was a perfect summit.
Looks like you said your summit was the lookout area over the lake. The actual summit of the mountain is another 20mins hike further up to the fire lookout station though, which is awesome because it gives you the view to the north to yamnuska and the bow valley. I prefer that hike in the winter actually snow shoe up to the lookout and have miles of scenery to the north then back down jewel pass and the lake zone. So much to explore there, I've done it at least 6 times (by hiking, bike and unicycle)...
Thanks for the correction. When I was going up, the last portion was not clearly marked, so I asked a few folks that were nearby, and they weren’t sure either, so I just followed someone else to that point. That being said, I didn’t do a whole lot of research on this one before starting, but still would be nice for more signage. Not even just here, but signage is a bit of an issue on a lot of hikes (at least for someone at my level).
This is a good hike and some great shots @daveks friend! I also felt like doing a little walk in some ecological reserve in Buenos Aires, I need some nature.

The view from the top of the mountain really looks astonishing. Again outstanding photography.
It was really a fantastic view. Thanks.
Beautiful, awesome shot's. Looks like Sasquatch country to me, seeing that your close to BC.
Someday I may run into the Sasquatch!
Looks like a gorilla that knows he's on camera.
Or a man dressed like a gorilla that knows he's on camera?
That makes more sense.
I haven't seen but I have heard the tree knocks and sounds that are not normal.
Great and much appreciateable shoots. I think tree at the top of hike is raising it's height and view. Which type of these trees are.?@daveks
There are so many different kinds, not specifically sure what these ones are. Thanks.
Blue ridge mountains, looks like you could set a flying saucer on the flat rocks.
Oh, most certainly..
That dude could.
Here we are with another nice photos from you.
I have never gone hiking before but I really wish to. One can enjoy the view with friends or alone.
Yes, hiking is a lot of fun. Thanks for commenting.
