Pigeon Lake

in photography •  7 years ago 

I'm sure you pretty familiar with Alberta if you follow my blog.
I'll show you a bit different view today. We expecting another snow dump in the next days and maybe this post will help to scare the winter away.

Summer is very short here but if you don't blink you may catch some.

When the wind picks up you can see the waves like on the sea.

You can see all existing types of water activities if you hang around for the weekend.

On the south side, we have a real sandy beach. Ma- Me- O Beach is the name.

Beautiful .. You are lucky
The place looks great for a spring break
Thanks for sharing this with us

Being with nature relaxes stress and anxiety. Its so refreshing to be with nature 😊

Beauty!

great moments friend. enjoy your time, here we have the first day in spring @oldtimer

Those are pretty incredible photos!

Pigeon Lake campground has a total of 300 campsites nicely suited for both RV's and tents. Amenities include group camping, handicap sites, beach, playgrounds, picnic shelters, concession, showers, water, fire pits, toilets, picnic tables, refuse containers, boat launch, fish cleaning station and firewood available for sale.
Really its a too much pretty place. I liked it. Some days ago I'll be coming on there and enjoyed some moments and feels its really cool.

My extended family has land on pigeon lake. We go camping there during the summer. I love it...and kneeboarding :)

We have gotten a lot of snow this year too and it just snowed here yesterday (West Virginia, USA). It doesn't usually snow this late in the year here so it has been an interesting spring so far. These photos are gorgeous! I hope you are able to chase the snow away.

beautiful lake

So this is where my ex girlfriends from lol

Really? 😌

Some really good photos in this collection. What a wonderful place to visit, moreso to live I wager.
We too are expecting some snow this weekend....I am secretly hoping it is a false forecast, I so want Spring to establish itself fully.

Love your post. You make Alberta so beautiful. I can feel the calm and peace

Ma-Me-O was a hit with the kids last summer. I'm sure there will be more road trips down there this year.

We hope for some warm weather soon.
