Taking the' back' road to serenity

Getting away from it all and enjoying being the only ones at a 'back roads' camping ground is one of life's greatest pleasures. What makes it all the more fun, is if to get to these campsites you have to switch to 4 by 4 mode in your truck/SUV & traverse some 'squirrelly' roads . My husband & I spent some wonderful summer evenings near Lake Louise fishing secluded lakes, playing cards by our campfire and watching the local wildlife parade by. We have (so far) been to only a few of the many 'Rocky Mountain Forest District' campsites (BC), but are planning to go back again this year to experience many more of them (and as we have never- had to share 'our' lake with anyone else, we know these are one of the few places we can go to find peace, solitude and nature at it's finest - basically perfect places to 'get away from it all'. The photos are of Halfway lake, 3 Island lake & the road we had to take to get there!
