Waterton Lakes National Park

Waterton Lakes National Park is tucked away in a quiet corner of southwest Alberta Canada.   The park covers an area of 505 square kilometres (195 square miles).

Waterton was Canada’s fourth national park and is the smallest in the Canadian Rockies.   Waterton is one of Alberta’s windiest places.   Winter winds over 100 km/hr are common.

Gram and Pops visited here in August 2007.   Unfortunately, there were several forest fires raging when we visited, so many of our pictures are filled with smoke.
