Lake Minnewanka

We went for a boat ride around Lake Minnewanka.  Due to some sketchy planning, it took us 3 tries to actually get on the boat!  On our way to get there through Banff National Park, there are a lot of Texas gates.  Molly was quite curious as to what was causing the car to rumble, so we finally let her take a look at one.

More pretty views.

Finally on the boat.



















































Molly's favorite part of the boat ride. There was an Indian myth that there was a monster living in the lake.  Eventually, it was effecting business on the lake, so a local business man decided in 1911 to find and kill the monster.  This is what he found.
