Reverence of the Canadian Rockies


The Canadian Rockies were the most beautiful and breathtaking things I had ever seen. Never in my whole entire life had I experienced something that vast and amazing. The mountains were jagged and sharp, like knives coming out out of the ground, trying to slice the sky in two. I could see bowls filled with snow. They looked like smooth whipped cream smeared across a rock face. The snow was as smooth as the top of a freshly opened tub of vanilla ice cream. By mid afternoon, the sun was directly above the mountains and lit them up like a brand new floor lamp. The sun glinted off of the snow and made it look like a bright white reflector.
