Barrier Lake, Kananaskis


Four of us spent the day in this area on 18th July - Barrier Lake, Kananaskis. It was the second day of the University of Calgary's Open House, and my tiny group spent part of the day botanizing the forested area along this part of the shore of the lake. Though you can't tell in this photo, the woods were a mass of wildflower colour, including many orange Western Wood Lilies and red Paintbrush. Such a beautiful, peaceful place. Afterwards, two of us went on a butterfly walk, led by Steve, who was spending the summer working at the centre. This was when the rain decided to arrive! Barrier Lake is located approximately 80 km west of Calgary city limits. The Barrier Lake Visitor Information Centre is located 6 km (3.6 miles) south of the Trans-Canada Highway on Highway 40.
