Well it was Fathers Day here in Canada so Nina and I and Danny thought we would take a short trip out to Elbow Falls. It is just a short ways out of Calgary and it was a beautiful day. The traffic was incredible...half of Calgary must have been at the falls.

So here are some pictures of the falls and the water levels in the spring.

Debris from the 2013 flood. I wonder how long it took nature to carve out that cave.
