This is vista is from Going to the Sun road in Glacier National Park. Going to the Sun is most scenic road I’ve ever been on. It crosses the park and has too many stunning views to count.

This view of Peyto Lake in Banff National Park is one my favorite vistas.  The beautiful turquoise color of the lake is what drew me to visiting Banff.   I saw painting of the lake at the National Museum of Wildlife Art in Jackson Hole, Wyoming and just marveled at the color of the lake and knew I had to go see it for myself.

The photograph I started with to make this painting is one of my favorites.  Moraine Lake is incredibly picturesque and it took me three trips to Banff National Park to find it with out the peak covered by clouds.
