This is where a 50 km drive up a logging road and several hours of hiking will get you - mountains as far as the eye can see. This a ten image stitch, about 180° from South at the left to North at the top.

To the left of the shot is Amiskwi Pass, leading down into Yoho National Park, to the right of the shot is Howse Pass leading up into Banff National Park. (Amiskwi and Howse Pass are part both part of the Great Divide Trail.) The glacier in the middle is Mummery Glacier, just off the Freshfield Icefield. Down the centre of the shot, hidden behind the first mountain there, is the Blaeberry valley, leading down to home. The route from Saskatchewan River Crossing, down through Howse Pass, and down the Blaeberrry River to the Columbia is one travelled by David Thompson over 200 years ago.

Great shot there.

"Bertwert Photo Tours" has a nice ring to it.

A grand vista! This is where the panoramic shot really pays off, it almost seems to invite you to come explore and savour the wilds.

Thanks! The problem with "Bert's Photo Tours" is that it implies I know what I'm doing!
