After a summer of sun reflecting into the fields off of the snow and rock of the mountains the terrain below displays the colorful signs that predict that a cooler fall on the way.
Soon, the night will get crisp enough for frosty mornings then later it will be snow and ice. The ranch in the distance with its cattle dotting the fields confirms that this is Cowboy country.
We are travelling on a beautifully scenic route called "The Cowboy Trail". Welcome to Alberta !
