Spirit Island Maligne Lake

Jasper National Park
Perhaps one of the best images I took on my Canadian Rockies trip.
This is what I wanted to photograph and what I suffered an hours boat trip for.
Only 10 minutes for photographs when we docked but I have to say it was worth every moment of hand clenching sitting in a small boat to get there

It was simply breath taking.

Hi Jess, this one place I always wanted to get to.. I thought about the boat ride and what I am going to do is not get on and miss the ride... it would be worth it.. they would end up taking you back anyway. Jasper is one of my favorite places as the Highwood Range.. so much to see in so little time in life... thanks for sharing... v

I keep returning to this photo to take another look and absorb a little more. It's as close to perfection as I can imagine. "Spirit Island" is certainly the right name for this place! Simply mesmerising!
